The next album from the Austin, Texas, band Okkervil River will tell the childhood tale of its lead singer and songwriter Will Sheff, a self-described awkward, nearsighted, asthmatic kid growing up the small town of Meriden, N.H. The music on The Silver Gymnasium, out on Sept. 3, is some of Okkervil River’s best, and you can hear it all beginning Aug. 26 as part of our First Listen program. For now, here’s a first taste: the premiere of the song “Down Down the Deep River.”
