Bright Eyes will be releasing a new EP entitled Kids Table on September 26 via Dead Oceans. The EP will include eight songs, of which we previously heard “1st World Blues,” released last month.
Along with the EP announcement, Bright Eyes (Conor Oberst, Mike Mogis, and Nate Walcott), are sharing today a new track called “Dyslexic Palindrome,” which features Hurray for the Riff Raff’s Alynda Segarra.

Conor Oberst said of collaborating with Alynda Segarra:
Alynda Segarra is one of the most soulful people I have ever encountered… Everything that passes through them is haunted by the weary ghost of American music past. I have had the good fortune of recording and performing with them on many occasions and I am always blown away by Alynda’s ability to channel what is both intangible and universal. Seemingly walking along in a second line of skeletons. Blowing on a valiant horn. I know it sounds crazy but, yet, there Alynda is. Always so very present but with one foot on the other side.
