Monday, 13 April 2009
Conor Oberst and The Mystic Valley band make history as they use technology, music and film to not only entertain their fans, but to raise money for numerous causes on Causecast. Unlike any film release before, Conor Oberst and The Mystic Valley Bandhave donated the documentary to be downloaded and viewed for FREE, in the hope that viewers will make a donation to one of the many nonprofits (links to causecast.org/org) on Causecast.
When Conor Oberst fled the mid-western winter for Tepoztlan, Mexico in early 2008, his plan was to record a collection of songs in beautiful surroundings with some friends. The band he put together for the recording sessions – all done in an adobe house half way up a mountain – was released last year as Conor Oberst, his first non-Bright Eyes release since 2001. The band then took to the road as Conor Oberst and The Mystic Valley Band, named for Valle Místico where the recording took place.
