Mystery, solved! You've wondered why you were constructing bamboo rafts in your sleep each and every sticky night; now, you have your answer - not only is Bill Callahan back with a beautiful new long player called Dream River, but the River pours forth from he to you, the shadowy figure of your Dream now revealed to be, Sweet Bill. Bill's Dream River tour flows and weaves its way from his door to yours, dripping from coast to coast, puddling through the Midlle-west, sure to be the deepest oasis of the Southwest. The tour spans two whole months, exactly the time needed to hit simply the best and brightest places North America (sorry, Canada) has to offer, with a band of regs known for knowing the Callahanalog like a needle in a locked groove! We're talkin' shows of post-Apocalypse-tic proportions, and with the news comes a visual, the first glimpse of the cover for Dream River!
