Okkervil River- The Stand Ins new album & covers project

To celebrate the upcoming release of their new album The Stand Ins, which will be out on Sept. 9th, Okkervil River have asked some of their favorite songwriters and performers to record cover versions of each song off the album. The band will release one of the new cover songs every few days leading up to albums release on Sept 9th via the groups YouTube channel.
The first song, "Lost Coastlines," is a duet between Okkervil's own Will Sheff and A.C. Newman of the The New Pornographers.
