"Dozens of crews with ad hoc explosives and a beer in hand make for a blitzkrieg celebration forever my favorite part of summer in the city." "Fourth of July in Pilsen is the height of summer in Chicago," Walker says.

So, when deciding where to shoot the video for "The Roundabout" with director Joe Martinez Jr., it's no surprise that Walker chose a uniquely Chicago locale: the Independence Day celebration in the West Side neighborhood of Pilsen. Ryley Walker - Full Performance (Live on KEXP) Watch on SD: So now you're in the sticks, sober and releasing music on your own label. Recorded in Walker's adopted hometown of Chicago after a grueling year on the road, the album is entwined with the Windy City. 'The Halfwit In Me' off of 'Golden Sings That Have Been Sung' by Ryley Walker, out August 19th, 2016 on Dead OceansDead Oceans. Golden Sings That Have Been Sung is a homecoming album of sorts. Ryley Walker has been a can’t-miss for me on every single tour that has taken him through New York this year, the latest being this date at Le Poisson Rouge with Jessica Pratt. Jovial new fathers-to-be, generous types who can't afford to buy a round, patrons who lament the diminishing returns of a $10 lotto ticket - you can find them all in "The Roundabout." Ryley Walker led off his March 2019 Union Pool residency with a shot of his usual self-deprecating humor, telling us he just got dumped and that this was his first show as a New Yorker (he’s lived here for months and performed quite a few sets here since). One part Galileo and one part Charles Bukowski, the characters in Walker's song revolve like celestial bodies around a neighborhood dive bar. Over its sprawling, sunbaked six minutes, we hear the lush, baroque production. The result is a lovely summertime canvas that allows Walker to captivate the listener with sparse but vivid lyrics.

For a certain kind of listener, Ryley Walker ’s The Halfwit in Me will be love at first sight. Walker's virtuosic guitar work is muted on this track, joined by subtle but bubbly piano and keys under the direction of producer and former Wilco multi-instrumentalist LeRoy Bach.
