The Arcs’ recent performance from New York City’s Housing Works Bookstore Cafe aired today at noon as part of NPR Music’s First Listen Live series and can be watched below. The concert features music from the band’s acclaimed new album, Yours, Dreamily, which is out now on Nonesuch Records.

The Arcs are Dan Auerbach, Leon Michels, Richard Swift, Homer Steinweiss, and Nick Movshon. Also featured on the album are Kenny Vaughan and Mariachi Flor de Toloache. The group collaboratively wrote and recorded 13 tracks for Yours, Dreamily, with the musicians playing a large array of roles both vocally and instrumentally. Co-produced by Auerbach and Michels, the album was recorded in roughly two weeks through spontaneous, informal sessions across the country at the Sound Factory in Los Angeles, the Diamond Mine in Queens, Auerbach’s Easy Eye Sound in Nashville, and in a lounge room at Electric Lady in Manhattan. Tchad Blake mixed the album on his horse farm in Wales.

In advance of Yours, Dreamily, The Arcs recently released two 7-inch singles (both with art designed by El Oms) b/w additional non-LP tracks, which are available now at independent retail outlets, thearcs.com, and nonesuch.com. The first includes the songs “Stay in My Corner” b/w “Tomato Can” and the second includes “Outta My Mind” b/w “My Mind”.
