When the Walkmen released their fine fourth album You & Me, musically able employees at the Nashville record store Grimey's New and Preloved Music decided to celebrate by performing Walkmen songs at an in-store. (Three of Grimey's employees are in an actual non-Walkmen cover band, the Privates.) The Walkmen caught wind of the event and, all these weeks later, invited the Privates to open for them at Nashville's the Basement this past Monday (10/13). Taking it a step further, the Privates backed up Hamilton Leithauser on his encore performance of Bows and Arrows track, "Thinking of a Dream I Had." Pretend you were there:

The latest song to emerge from the Walkmen’s upcoming Heaven is the downtempo, penultimate “We Can’t Be Beat,” a track that puts Hamilton Leithauser up front with minimal accompanying instrumentation. Leithauser then leads the song into a rousing, joyous jangle of a climax. Stream it below. Heaven is out 5...

A couple of days ago, we posted “Heaven,” the driving but lovely first single and title track from the new Walkmen album. And now there’s another track from the album floating out there in the ether: “Heartbreaker,” another excellent track done with the sort of old-school panache that nobody mana...

In February, our T. Cole Rachel spoke with the Walkmen’s Hamilton Leithauser about their forthcoming, Phil Ek-produced record, which later got a name and a more official announcement.
