Okkervil River and Amy Klein perform The Valley at Jake's in Lubbock TX
In June 2011, Okkervil River performed a memorable set at Jake's Sports Cafe in Lubbock, Texas, with Amy Klein joining them on stage for 'The Valley.' This recording comes right after the band released their sixth studio album, 'I Am Very Far,' which showcased their evolving sound and deeper lyrical narratives. Notably, this album marked a time of reflection and artistic growth for frontman Will Sheff, especially coming off the acclaimed 'The Stage Names.' The concert allowed fans to experience the raw energy of their live performances while promoting new material. It's fascinating to think that this was the concluding show of their tour, reflecting a blend of excitement and bittersweet emotions, making the atmosphere electric as the band bid farewell for that leg of their journey.
