Bright Eyes is an American indie rock band. The people in the band are Conor Oberst, a singer-songwriter; Mike Mogis, a musician and producer; and other friends and session musicians from Omaha, Nebraska, USA.
Many people think the band's songs are about Oberst, but Oberst has said that they are not.[1][2] For example, one song, "Padraic My Prince", tells the fictional story of a mother drowning her son in a bathtub.[3] In interviews, Oberst has said that he sings about such things to make rich emotions.
