As it turns out, our favorite Merle Haggard fan , Will Oldham, does have a new LP on the way after all: Wolfroy Goes to Town , the forthcoming 10-track set features Bonnie "Prince" Billy's excellent recent touring band of Ben Boye, Van Campbell, Shahzad Ismaily, Emmett Kelly, Danny Kiely, and Angel Olsen . (This lineup put on one of the best intimate shows I've ever seen last year at a 200-capacity chapel.) The LP, which is due out via Drag City on October 4, dons the cover art above and tracklist below. [...]
Every year since 2003, Will Oldham has released some sort of music under his acclaimed moniker Bonnie 'Prince' Billy . Already this year, the singer-songwriter has dropped a series of singles and an audiobook , and on October 4th, he'll return with a new full length record. Titled Wolfroy Goes to Town , the 10-track effort features a supporting cast of Ben Boye, Van Campbell, Shahzad Ismaily, Emmett Kelly, Danny Kiely, and Angel Olsen.

Bonnie 'Prince' Billy Covers Merle Haggard's 'Because of Your Eyes.'
Bonnie "Prince" Billy Covers Merle Haggard Earlier this summer, Spiritual Pajamas released their inaugural limited 7", Haggard Harper Bonnie , which features Will Oldham, as Bonnie "Prince" Billy, covering "Because of Your Eyes," a late-career gem by Merle Haggard, along with Roy Harper's 1974 Valentine cut "I'll See You Again." While we heard a snippet of the A-side at the time, now the full ode to enduring love can be streamed in full above. Speaking of Oldham's affection for Haggard, [...]
File this under rumors, but news appears to be breaking that Bonnie 'Prince' Billy has a new set ready for release on October 4th. This shouldn't take anyone by surprise, as Will Oldham is one of the more prolific artists alive today. But, still, a new proper Bonnie 'Prince' Billy set is something to celebrate and anticipate, and this news of an impending release is pretty awesome. No word on whether the above artwork is the album art, but it was first posted by LEO Weekly and later perpetuated by You Ain't No Picasso . [...]
OK. I hate running rumors, but this one seems pretty legit. LEO Weekly just ran a blog post announcing that a new Bonnie 'Prince' Billy album would be out in October. I find this very easy to believe because BPB is exceptionally prolific, LEO is based in his hometown and the art they selected for [...]

![[Watch] – Bonnie 'Prince' Billy & The Cairo Gang – "New Wonder"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3661152_lg.jpg)
Tweet For years I've had friends continually tell me how great Will Oldham's Bonnie "Prince" Billy songs are and with all honesty I haven't always agreed. There are always exceptions and "New Wonder" is one of them. I'm not exactly sure why this song stands out to me as being far more impressive than the majority of his previous work, I know it has something to do with the clarity of the message within the lyrics but that's not entirely it. Watch the video [...]
Ever entertaining and wandering warbler Bonnie "Prince" Billy (a.k.a. Will Oldham) and multi-instrumentalist Dominic Cipolla (the main brain behind the elusive The Phantom Family Halo ) previously released "The Mindeater" as a limited-edition vinyl EP through the Sophomore Lounge label, but it will be available both on CD format and digitally for the first time on September 27, 2011 through the band's new label, Knitting Factory Records. The Phantom Family Halo will also be releasing a full-length effort in early 2012, so keep an eye out for that as [...]

Bonnie 'Prince' Billy - Because of Your Eyes (Merle Haggard cover)
Arrived home last week to find three interesting new songs waiting for me. Let's start with the Bonnie Prince Billy one. Prolific as ever, the Louisville Lion just contributed to the cool song+stories project of Long Haul Productions. Mother Nature Kneels is a dreamy but intense beauty, inspired by a mysterious wave of small earthquakes in Faulkner County, Arkansas. Read all about its background here .

As acts such as Mumford and Sons , Fleet Foxes and Bon Iver enjoy an unexpected rein at the top of the charts -- a clue that indie-folk's popular revival [...]

Who knows where Will Oldham will turn up next… The latest recording from Bonnie "Prince" Billy comes courtesy of "The Natural State," a news piece aired on radio stations over the weekend about "a swarm of mysterious earthquakes beginning last fall along an ancient and heretofore unknown fault" in Faulkner County, Arkansas. Some believe the quakes were catalyzed by thousands of natural gas wells having been hydro-fractured or "fracked" in the area since 2005. Oldham worked closely with producers Dan Collison and Elizabeth Meister on this episode of "Songs and Stories," penning "Mother Nature Kneels," a somber [...]
It's never easy to predict what Will Oldham will do next, but you can always count on him releasing something new pretty shortly after his last release. His newest single "There Is No God" was only released physically this week, but he's already got something else lined up for next week. Bonnie 'Prince' Billy will release a 73 single of covers, the A-side being his cover of Merle Haggard's "Because of Your Eyes" and the b-side will be a cover of Roy Harper's "I'll See You Again." The single is to be the inaugural release on [...]
