Okkervil River

On November 20, 2011, Okkervil River took to the stage at Sound Control in Manchester, delivering a captivating live performance of “No Key, No Plan.” This recording comes at a pivotal point in their career, shortly after the release of their album 'I Am Very Far' in May 2011. The album marked a significant evolution in the band's sound, incorporating lush instrumentation and introspective lyrics, a departure from their earlier, more stripped-back style. It's interesting to note that lead singer Will Sheff often draws on personal experiences and storytelling, which adds layers to their live shows. During this period, Okkervil River was gaining traction and evolving creatively, bringing a fresh energy to their performances. This Manchester concert exemplifies the band's engaging presence and the depth of their new material, making it a memorable moment in their journey.
