“Down By The Water” is off of The Decemberists’ upcoming The King Is Dead, out in January. The song features R.E.M guitarist Peter Buck and Gillian Welch. Enter your email address in that little widget below to download the track. Peter Buck’s influence on the song seems pretty strong. This definitely has an REM sound to it – reminds me a lot of “Shiny Happy People” no? Yes. I dig it though.
