Kurt Vile and Courtney Barnett Announce Tour and Album as a Duo

Kurt Vile and Courtney Barnett have announced a tour as a duo – and the pair have also recorded an album in Australia. This comes according to a Facebook post from Vile (see below), which includes North American tour dates with an “all-star band called The Sea Lice.” That band includes Sleater-Kinney/Wild Flag drummer Janet Weiss, Vile’s bandmate Rob Laakso, Warpaint drummer Stella Mozgawa and Sleater-Kinney touring member Katie Harkin. Further information about Kurt Vile and Courtney Barnett’s album is forthcoming.

Presale tickets for the Vile/Barnett tour are available at noon today.
