Sleep and Wake Up Songs

Record Store Day 2015 Release. Limited to 500 Copies. 'Sleep and Wake-Up Songs' is re-released for Record Store Day, its first time ever pressed on vinyl.  Including a demo of the EP track  'You're Untied Again' and the never before released song  'Knocking Myself Out', the EP reveals Okkervil River in-between the monumental albums  'Down The River Of Golden Dreams' and  'Black Sheep Boy'. Okkervil River present a small collection of more meditative songs, 'Sleep And Wake-Up Songs' is just a station on your way; it knows it's not your lover. It's a little shed, a lean-to constructed on the banks of some shaded stream between mountains. There is peace and quiet here. There's a Les Paul resting against a fallen bough, but there are few loud noises, little reason to panic. The smell of cedars hangs in the air. There's a strange chill. Limited to 500 copies.
