Speed, Sound, Lonely KV (ep)

Kurt Vile

A warm, acoustic-led tribute to Nashville's songwriting legends. Stripped-back and intimate, it feels like a private session in a sun-soaked studio.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The weathered, joyful interplay between Kurt and John Prine on 'How Lucky' where their voices merge in a shared grin.
The sprawling, hypnotic acoustic guitar loops on 'Dandelions' that stretch out into a six-minute meditation.
The way the pedal steel sighs behind the opening chords of the John Prine cover, setting a tone of reverent melancholy.
