Better Oblivion Community Center Share “Dylan Thomas” Video + Announce Tour Dates

Posted on 01/29/2019

Better Oblivion Community Center, the new band from Phoebe Bridgers and Conor Oberst, recently surprise-released their self-titled debut album. The record is currently available digitally and is set for a physical release on February 22nd via Dead Oceans.

Today, the band is sharing the video for the album’s lead single, “Dylan Thomas,” directed by Japanese Breakfast‘s Michelle Zauner.

Speaking on the origins of the clip, Zauner states: “Phoebe Bridgers and Conor Oberst are two of my favorite songwriters and lyricists of our time, so it was an honor to get to work with them on the visuals for their new project together. As always I worked with Adam Kolodny, my DP and creative collaborator to bring this cross between an Eyes Wide Shut LA mansion party and the Great Northern Hotel to life.

Last week, the band performed the song on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and CBS This Morning, where they also performed “Didn’t Know What I Was In For” and “My City.

In addition to the video, the band are sharing details of a spring tour of the United States and Europe. The North American leg of the tour begins on March 8th in Tucson, before making stops in Los Angeles, New York City, Chicago and many more cities before culminating in a performance in Phoenix on April 13th.
