Okkervil River

On September 15, 2016, Okkervil River performed 'The War Criminal Rises And Speaks' live at The Sinclair in Cambridge, MA, a crucial moment for the band. By this time, they had just released their album 'Away' a year earlier in 2016, which marked a departure from their earlier sound, diving into themes of loss and introspection. It's interesting to note that 'Away' was seen as a personal work for frontman Will Sheff, a reflection of his creative evolution. The performance featured other talented musicians, including Cully Symington and Sarah K Pedinotti, showcasing the band's collaborative spirit. This concert underscores a pivotal point in their journey, balancing both a rich musical legacy and experiments in artistic expression.
