Will Sheff has always written from the wreckage, turning personal upheaval into songs that feel communal and cathartic. Away marked a genuine reinvention, finding him stepping away from the indie folk-rock framework that defined earlier Okkervil River records and reaching toward something looser, more atmospheric, and more willing to sit with uncertainty. Recorded over three days in a studio on Long Island, and mixed in LA with Jonathan Wilson, Away was written during a turbulent and transitional time for Will Sheff. It's swirling, psychedelic backdrop and band of musicians with jazz and avant garde backgrounds represent the start of a bright new beginning for Okkervil River. Tracklist 1. Okkervil River R.I.P.
