The Decemberists’ First 2015 U.S. Dates
Colin Meloy and the gang are supporting their first full-length studio album since 2011’s The King Is Dead. Marking the band’s seventh LP, What A Terrible World, What A Beautiful World is due out Jan. 20 on Capitol Records. The Decemberists produced the new tunes with long-time collaborator Tucker Martine, who has also worked with My Morning Jacket and Neko Case.
