Kyle Meredith With... James Mercer of The Shins

James Mercer sits down with Kyle Meredith to talk about The Shins’ new single, "The Great Divide". The singer-songwriter explains how it musically conjures both nostalgia and futurism, and how he’s slowly been closing the musical gap between The Shins and Broken Bells. Mercer also discusses a potential 20th anniversary edition of Oh Inverted World, whether we'll see a new Shins album anytime soon, the nearly finished LP from Broken Bells, and his recent work with Bruce Hornsby.
