Are you ready for something a little less ordinary? Unconventional Philly indie rocker Kurt Vile is back with a new EP of songs ready to blow your mind. This June, he’s bringing them and the rest of his catalogue of genre-defying earworms to New Jersey for North to Shore.
If you aren’t familiar with Kurt Vile yet, you’re missing out. The former guitarist for the War on Drugs is also a singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, record producer and overall force of musical nature. He’s been cultivating an offbeat sound truly his own over the years, marked by influences ranging from the Velvet Underground to Dinosaur Jr to John Prine to Tom Petty and even Jersey’s own treasure, the Boss himself. The result is not just great music, but an elevated poetic artform reminiscent of conversations set to melody and rhythm. A man on a mission to blow minds, Vile is more than just a great songwriter – he consistently wows audiences with his stratospheric musical talent and inimitable stage shows.
If you’re looking for a show with an artist unlike any other, don’t miss Kurt Vile on June 20 at the Anchor Rock Club.
