Jan 15, 2013 Okkervil River By Mike Hilleary

Okkervil River‘s Will Sheff has announced that he has begun a new solo project called Lovestreams.

Recently sharing a new song called “Shock Corridor” on his website Sheff has opted away from his more recognized folk leanings and delved into more electro-pop territory. Sheff writes:

“In the early part of last year I started renting a room down in a basement a couple neighborhoods over from my apartment in Brooklyn and I started going in and working every day of the week there, just shutting the door and writing until evening. I decided to do a project there I’d wanted to do for years and years, which is to make an album by myself and for myself, an album that doesn’t owe anything to music I made before. When I finished the album I decided I’d give some the songs away for free since it cost almost nothing to make.”

Stay tuned as more details come about, and stream “Shock Corridor” below.
