Kurt Vile Plots First North American Solo Tour in More Than 10 Years

Kurt Vile will embark on his first North American solo tour in more than 10 years next spring.

The musician — who usually hits the road with his band the Violators — will kick off the trek April 8th at Thalia Hall in Chicago, Illinois. The run wraps May 15th at the Paramount Theatre in Austin, Texas. Vile will receive support from Cate Le Bon throughout the trek and a press release teases that fans can “expect Kurt to collaborate live on stage with Cate as well as Stephen Black and Stella Mozgawa.”

Tickets for some shows will start to go on sale December 19th at 10 a.m. local time, with more following December 20th. Complete information is available on Vile’s website. Vile has also partnered with Plus1 to donate $1 from every ticket sold to the voter registration, outreach and advocacy group HeadCount.

Vile released his most recent album, Bottle It In, in October 2018. This past October, he shared a new documentary, (bottle back), which found him prepping for the album’s release and a forthcoming tour in a large Victorian estate in Upstate New York. The clip featured performances of several songs, including “Bassackwards,” “Check Baby” and “Baby’s Arms.”
