Picaresque, the new album from The Decemberists comes out on March 22nd and is available now for pre-order via Amazon. I just popped on and ordered my copy and I am eagerly anticipating seeing performed live here at the Avalon in Boston this coming May. If it is anything like the show last summer at The Paradise, or the solo show last month at TT’s, it will be well worth the short money paid for the tickets.
As a bonus, Amazon has a great page with a printed and audio version of a recent interview with Decemberists front man Colin Meloy which is worth checking out. Enjoy!
