Saddle Creek will be taking pre-orders for the new Bright Eyes album on January 23. The band "spent much of 2006 in the studio working on their follow-up to the acclaimed simultaneous releases I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning and Digital Ash in a Digital Urn. The first single, 'Four Winds', is presented with 5 exclusive B-sides from the 2006 recording sessions." Four Winds EP will be released March 6, while the full length will hit stores on April 10.

Conor Oberst and Bright Eyes continue to release music under Oberst's label, distributed through Sony. Don't call it a solo project as Bright Eyes is now a concrete band; Mike Mogis and Nate Walcott are staying on board with Oberst.

Saddle Creek has a second release on the same day with Maria Taylor's sophomore album, Lynn Teeter Flower. Saddle Creek promises that her follow-up to 11:11, "takes her songcraft one step further, mixing together soaring guitars, bubbly electronics, feathery farfisa organs and sugary layers of vocals into the sweetest confection of an album youâ€™ll hear all year."
