KURT VILE & THE VIOLATORS

Right in time for Kurt Vile’s first ever tour of Australia, Kurt's latest album Smoke Ring For My Halo has been released as a deluxe edition. Available now via Matador / Remote Control, the album comes with the additional CD EP So Out Of Reach.


So Outta Reach features five incredible unheard songs, recorded during the Smoke Ring For My Halo album sessions, plus a cover of Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Downbound Train’.

Released earlier this year on Matador / Remote Control, Smoke Ring For My Halo is tender and evocative, elusive but companionable; tough in the gut and the arm but swollen in the chest and giddy in the head. Smoke Ring For My Halo is a gorgeously layered record - a true American psychedelic folk album. Recorded at the Magic Shop by John Agnello, (Dinosaur Jr ,The Hold Steady, The Living End, Andrew WK, Sonic Youth), the album is a massive step forward for this most beloved (not least by other musicians) rock songwriters.

Over the past eighteen months Kurt Vile has toured with the likes of Sonic Youth, Panda Bear, Ariel Pink, Fucked Up, Dinosaur Jr, The National and Deerhunter. Don't miss your chance to see Kurt Vile and The Violators in Australia for the first time this December.
