Kurt Vile is excited to announce a new run of US headline spring dates with support from Cate Le Bon kicking off in Chicago on April 8. The tour will make a handful of Midwest stops before heading down the East Coast, followed by a slew of West Coast dates before wrapping up five weeks later in Austin on May 15. For his first solo tour in North
America in over ten years, fans can expect Kurt to collaborate live on stage with Cate as well as Stephen Black and Stella Mozgawa.
For this tour, Kurt Vile has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 from every ticket goes to support HeadCount working to promote civic engagement, and inform and register young voters. www.headcount.org.
This past October, Kurt released a short documentary film directed by Ryan Scott called (bottle back) [1], that captures Kurt camping out in the Catskills alongside his fellow musicians/friends The Sadies and Matt Sweeney. The short film features a solo acoustic adaptation of “Bassackwards,” a performance of “Check Baby” with The
Violators, and a special stripped-down rendition of “Baby’s Arms ” featuring The Sadies.
