With Oberst’s bi-coastal residency in full swing, last night, Los Angeles, California fans were treated to a performance of the former group’s 2019 song “My City” at Teragram Ballroom. Even knowing that is highly unlikely, hearing the pair together again immediately raises the question of whether they will get back together.
But it is simply a deep appreciation of each other’s artistic talents, as Oberst pointed out during his interview with Uproxx‘s Philip Cosores. “Hearing Phoebe’s music, there are some people’s voices that you can’t unheard,” he said. “Her voice is so striking and unique and amazing, and her songs are amazing.”
But the appearance wasn’t a one-track and done favor. The pair also delivered a moving cover of Bright Eyes’ 2004 record”Luna.” In addition, putting a fun spin on Oberst’s 2014 track “Double Life.” Check out the full fan-captured videos below.
There’s one more Los Angeles performance (March 28) date for the Conor Oberst and Friends residencybefore it heads to New York City. Maybe an announcement about Better Oblivion Community Center’s future is on the way.
