Listen to Shearwater’s interview and performance on XPN2

The Austin, TX band Shearwater recently stopped by the XPN2 studios to perform songs from their newly released album, Animal Joy. Now you can stream the session whenever you like. Shearwater started out as the side project of Okkervil River members Jonathan Meiburg and Will Sheff. Now led entirely by Meiburg, Shearwater’s music has gone through many stylistic changes; from orchestral folk to experimental ambient to their newfound rock direction. We’ll hear live performances of songs from Animal Joy, and XPN2’s Eric Schuman talks with Meiburg about his creative journey and his life outside of music.
