Conor Oberst & the Mystic Valley Band will be releasing their second album, Outer South, on May 5th, as well as a documentary DVD offering a behind-the-scenes look at the band.
Titled One of My Kind and created by the Mystic Valley Band's guitar tech, Phil Shaffart, the DVD will feature footage from last year's world tour, as well as from the recording sessions for Conor Oberst and Outer South. One of My Kind will be available on April 15th as a FREE stream or HD download at a number of hosts, including Causecast, IFC, the Conor Oberst website and Merge Records.
