Description
Composer: Conor Oberst.
Bright Eyes: Conor Oberst (guitar); Mike Mogis (12-string guitar); Nate Walcott (electric piano).
Personnel: Hassan Lemtouni, Sean Foley, Gillian Welch, Andy LeMaster, Rachael Yamagata, Jake Bellows, Ted Stevens, Sherri DuPree, Stacy DuPree, Z Berg (vocals); David Rawlings, M. Ward (guitar); Anton Patzner (violin); Sarah Wass (flute); David Moyer, Brian Walsh (bass clarinet); Myka Miller (oboe); Stephanie Drootin, Tim Luntzel, Dan McCarthy (bass instrument); Shane Aspegren, Janet Weiss, Maria Taylor, Jason Boesel (drums); Dan Fliegel, Dan Bitney, Michael Zerang, Clark Baechle, Jonathan Crawford (percussion); John McEntire (electronics); Suzie Katayama, Bill Meyers.
It's clear that the year-plus Bright Eyes's Conor Oberst took between 2005's widely acclaimed I'M WIDE AWAKE, IT'S MORNING (and the simultaneously released DIGITAL ASH IN A DIGITAL URN) and 2007's CASSADAGA was well spent. The product of intensive studio time, a crack assembly of musicians, and lavish, lovely production and arrangements, CASSADAGA stands as one of Bright Eyes' most confident and consistent works.
The album throws together genres--folk, country, rock, pop--and coats it all in a gauzy dressing of strings, harmonies, and high-end atmospherics. Yet at the center of it all is still Obert's songwriting: witty, emotive, literate, and replete, this time out, with references to the expanse and grandeur of America as a playing field for life, love, and politics. At times reflective, at times rousing, CASSADAGA plays like a sweet pop dream, and adds another notch to Bright Eyes' already impressive discography.
