Bright Eyes

In November 2022, Bright Eyes performed a captivating live rendition of "Jejune Stars" at the Baltimore Soundstage. This performance falls just after the release of their album, *Down in the Weeds, Where the World Once Was*, which came out in August 2020, marking their first new material in nearly a decade. The band, led by Conor Oberst, showcased a mature sound that reflects the evolution they underwent during their hiatus — deepening their lyricism while embracing lush instrumentation. Interestingly, the live recording captures not just a song, but a moment of return for a band that has significantly shaped the indie music landscape since the early 2000s. Oberst’s emotional delivery, combined with the band’s tight performance, speaks volumes about their growth and connection with audiences, proving that even after years apart, Bright Eyes still has that special spark.
