    Bright Eyes formally ended an eight-year hiatus with 2020's Down In the Weeds, Where the World Once Was, the band's most grandiose, orchestrated album yet. On this episode, we cover the tribulations that led up to the band's reformation, expanding the Bright Eyes fold with players like Flea and Jon Theodore, and how processing tragedy informs this group of songs.
