The Decemberists: EP, Tour, ACL

The Decemberists will release The Perfect Crime #2 EP on September 25 via Capitol Music Group. Their latest jaunt, dubbed “The Long and Short of It,” will cover 13 cities with at least two nights in each market. “Long” evenings will focus on the band’s epic, progressive compositions. “Short” nights (while no shorter in set length) will highlight their more succinct, pop-leaning material.
