| Bill Callahan To Release New Album 'Dream River' Cabin crew, prepare for landing! Gliding through low altitudes, Bill Callahan has set his sites on the runway. It is 2013 and he's ready to land again, with a full cargo for the people down below on earth: 'Dream River, ' set for September 17 release on Drag City. Recorded at Cacophony, TX, earlier this year, 'Dream River' features eight performances that are easily the most sensual and soulful of Callahan's career. Whether flying home in a small plane, drinking with the sleeping inhabitants of a hotel for company, painting boats for the summer or flying towards the sea along the path of the dream river without the aid of any craft, Bill Callahan is speaking to us in a voice - that "gorgeous thing" (New Yorker) - that belongs to him and only him. 'Dream River' follows 2011's 'Apocalypse, ' which prompted the New York Times to call Callahan "one of our best lyricists." Callahan will tour extensively this fall. Stay tuned for dates and more information on 'Dream River.'
