Bill Callahan Shares Another New Single
It feels like hyping up a new Bill Callahan single is a no-brainer. You talk about his vocals; you talk about his lyrics; you talk about his history in the scene. Those things are all great, and I’m here for it, but I really love the way he can make a mini-opus feel like a brief adventure. This song stretches beyond seven minutes, but his matter-of-fact storytelling just makes it feel like you’re sitting around a campfire being serenaded by a classic troubadour, trading stories for food. In a sense, his work harkens to the oldest bards, mixing stories and song, making My Days of 58 a surefire necessity in your collection; it drops via Drag City on February 27th.
