Fans of Better Oblivion Community Center were treated to a special performance from the indie rock duo last night at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles, California. The band hit the road in early March for a sold-out run in support of their new album, and they still have a string of remaining European and North American shows which will pick up again on May 1st in Oslo. See below for a list of upcoming dates.
Prior to the intimate performance, Conor Oberst and Phoebe Bridgers sat down for a Q&A, where they shared how they first formed nearly two years ago and detailed their journey through the recording process of their self titled debut album. The singer/songwriters admitted that since the lyrics they collaborated on writing were altered throughout the writing process, it's hard for them to even remember who wrote which lines, and pointed out that that though one may sing parts of tracks throughout the record, does not mean they wrote the lyrics. That guessing game in itself, coupled with their respective songwriting and vocal talents is what makes Better Oblivion Community Center a captivating band.
Better Oblivion Community Center's 6-track setlist at the Grammy Museum kicked off with the opening song from their debut album, ""Didn't Know What I Was in For." The short yet powerful setlist included additional tracks from the release like "Dylan Thomas," "Sleepwalkin'," "Exception to the Rule," "Chesapeake," and "My City."
