Talking of artists involved in the anti-Bush campaign, Conor Oberst aka Bright Eyes is not only taking part in the Vote For Change Tour but has almost finished two albums worth of material.
According to MTV, one album is already complete - it was recorded mostly in Presto studios in Lincoln, Nebraska, with Mike Mogis who produced and played on Bright Eyes' last album 'Lifted or the Story Is in the Soil, Keep Your Ear to the Ground'. The new album is thought to sound like a traditional, folksy Bright Eyes record. Emmylou Harris provides backing vocals on three tracks.
The second album is apparently more poppy and modern and is nearly finished. Both LPs are expected to be released on the same day in Jan.
