Philly’s constant hitmaker, critical darling, and songwriter/guitarist/multi-instrumentalist Kurt Vile, returns with his upcoming collaborative EP with Nashville songsmith Luke Roberts, “Classic Love”.
Kurt and Luke were admirers of one another after meeting on MySpace years ago, and this release highlights both of their distinctive musical styles. “classic love” was written by Luke, “hit of the highlife” by Kurt, “slow talkers ‘22” is a re-work from Kurt’s 2008 debut album and “wildflower” is a Beach House cover.
STAFF COMMENTS
Barry says: A lovely little collab record that pits Vile's unmistakeable laid-back vocals and slacker rock leanings with arty avant country aficionado Luke Roberts. It's very laid back, as you'd expect but swimming with beautifully penned melodies and clever instrumental interludes.
