His paternal grandfather Osgood Perkins, was also an actor. Perkins attended Brown University, in Providence, Rhode Island. [Wikipedia]

As just mentioned, tickets went on sale today for the upcoming Elvis Perkins show at Bowery Ballroom. As also mentioned, that show is one of a few tour dates he and his band will be playing in March when their new album comes out. XL Recordings (the label) has since announced the exact date (March 10) and the album name “Elvis Perkins in Dearland” (which makes it self-titled). You can still stream three of the news songs, and you can now also download one of them above.
