Decemberists new live LP.




The Decemberists will release an expansive, 20-song career spanning live album We All Raise Our Voices to the Air on March 13 via Capitol. Recorded during four months of concerts on the eclectic Portland band's 2011 spring and summer tour, the live recording includes seven songs from The Decemberists' The King Is Dead project as well as five tracks from their 2005 album Picaresque and three taken from 2003's Her Majesty. One song, "Dracula's Daughter", has never been released on a Decemberist project but did appear on frontman/songwriter Colin Meloy's 2008 album Sings Live!. See the full track listing below.

Raise Our Voices to the Air also comes on the heels of the band's Long Live the King EP, a six-track collection of songs recorded during the King Is Dead studio sessions.
