Following the success of the new album in America, performances on Letterman and Conan O’Brien, and several high profile cover features, The Crane Wife will be released in the UK on January 29th 2007. The Decemberists have built up a huge fanbase and garnered extensive, cross genre critical acclaim through their series of beautiful and fantastical albums brimming with flawless melodies and songs inhabited by casts of legionnaires, chimney sweeps, sea captains and seekers of all kinds. The album was co-produced by Chris Walla (Death Cab for Cutie) and Tucker Martine (Laura Veirs). The Crane Wife is an extrapolation of the folk tale, a re-imagining of its themes on a broader canvas. For every song that touches directly on Meloy’s interpretation of the Japanese legend (gorgeous album opener “The Crane Wife 3,” or its prequel, “The Crane Wife 1 and 2”), several more take their cue from the fabric of the story and stretch outward into other visions.
