Dark Light Daybreak

Hailing from Athens, Georgia, Now It’s Overhead is the acclaimed indie rock band fronted by Andy LeMaster. Emerging in the early 2000s alongside the Saddle Creek scene, LeMaster worked with Conor Oberst of Bright Eyes, Michael Stipe of R.E.M., and Orenda Fink and Maria Taylor of Azure Ray.

Across three acclaimed full-lengths, Now It’s Overhead (2001), Fall Back Open (2004), and Dark Light Daybreak (2006), the band mapped out a distinctive corner of early 2000s indie rock. These long-awaited editions are available on vinyl for the first time and newly remastered by Andy LeMaster.

The Associated Press called Now It’s Overhead “a unique brand of organic and synthetic dark pop—made possible by LeMaster’s studio prowess—that remains distinctive even when Conor Oberst and Michael Stipe briefly stop by.” Essential listening for collectors and anyone exploring that era.
