Rainbows on the overpass are a somewhat common sight in the Tampa Bay area, and you can count on Conor Oberst & co. to sing about it when they come to Tampa Bay next year.
The 44-year-old’s trio, Bright Eyes, releases a new album, Five Dice, All Threes, next month and has a trio of Florida dates supporting the outing.
Tickets to see Bright Eyes play Jannus Live in St. Petersburg, Florida on Wednesday, March 5, 2025 are on sale now and start at $45.
Openers have yet to be announced, but the other Florida stops on Bright Eyes’ tour include Jacksonville (March 3) and Orlando (March 7).
“Rainbow Overpass,” the second new single from Five Dice features vocals from the So So Glos’ Alex Orange Drink, who Oberst said is like a hype man on the track.
“They grew up on punk rock and the Beasties, so there are a lot of little bursts of other voices. I like that. It creates energy,” Oberst said in a statement. “Sometimes music can feel flat until you get into a live situation, when there’s adrenaline and raw energy. Instead of working in reverse, where that happens as we tour, I was trying to get some of that energy onto the record.”
P4K says Cat Power, the National’s Matt Berninger also appear on the new Bright Eyes album.
