Kurt Vile & the Violators announce tour
Kurt Vile spent 2017 doing a collaborative album and tour with Courtney Barnett (which was then turned into a documentary), but he’s back to focusing on his own material in 2018. He’s fresh off playing Willie Nelson’s Luck Reunion during SXSW, has upcoming appearances at such fests as Mountain Jam and Forecastle, as well as a hometown Philly show with John Prine, and he has now announced the first Kurt Vile & the Violators tour in over a year.
The Violators’ tour includes New Haven’s College Street Music Hall on 6/15 and Jersey City’s White Eagle Hall on 6/16. Tickets for those shows go on sale Friday (3/23). Those dates are part of a run with Columbus, OH indie rockers Connections. All dates are listed below.
Kurt was also recently a guest on Portlandia and in the studio with Dean Ween.
