Back to Festival season, as Summer slowly runs down.
Tonight it’s a visit to Route du Rock at Saint Malo France for yet another jam-packed lineup of bands making the rounds all over Europe this year.
So yesterday it was a set from Kurt Vile & The Violators. Vile, former member of The War on Drugs, has been going solo the past few years with his backup band The Violators.
The American Folk-Psyche troubadour extraordinaire has been shaking up audiences all over Europe this year, and this appearance at Route du Rock was no different. He’s currently finishing up a tour of Europe before heading back to the States for the next leg. Hitting Chicago on September 14th and then over to Sacramento in October.
Check him out if you get a chance. In the meantime, have a listen to what you missed yesterday and head over to his website and pickup some of his releases.
Good times – good music continues.
