Kurt Vile

Why see Kurt Vile?

Kurt Vile Heads Out On Tour!

Dubbed the Neil Young of his generation, Kurt Vile is courageously keeping the fires of heartland rock burning, fusing the old school, blues-tinged Americana of the open roads with modern production techniques and swathes of shoegazy synth. He first introduced the world to his considerable talent in 2005 as part of the duo War On Drugs, subsequently coming into his own in a solo capacity over the course of seven studio albums. Don't miss the gifted innovator when he heads out on tour!

Vile's signature blend of folk, rock, introspective lyrics and fuzzy, lo-fi guitar underpin his clever observations of life, which often find beauty in the mundane and revel in the ironic. His laid-back vocals and heavy-lidded soundscapes seduce the listener with their simplicity, making for hypnotic live shows filled with elliptical riffs and laconic melodies. Unhurried and in control, Vile is a showman of a different kind, shying away from gimmicks and forced crowd interaction to keep the spotlight firmly on the music.

Kurt Vile at Observatory 6-19-25

The show was my first and will not be my last. For my first show of kurt vile I didn't know what to expect as far as crowd, mood, ambiance etc. All I knew was how he and the band sounded on apple music and I was really excited to watch what turned out ot be a masterful performance that lead to great moments in the small packed house. Loved the music and I didn't know what to expect, I didn't expect what I saw and I was freaking floored by the music as a whole. Stage Banner in the background had cool colors and a great changing glow as the lights changed throughout the night. I had a great time hanging in that crowd everyone was just as excited as I was to watch and listen at the same time. Great night in deed. Thanks Kurt and the Band had a blast will be a fan for as long as they make music. If you're on the fence about seeing Kurt Vile, Get off your bum and GET TO THE SHOW!!! ... Read more
