Vile bodies

And now onto the headliner at Babylon, Kurt Vile. I think you could fairly say he's one of the bigger names in the field of lo-fi psycj-pop, along with Ariel Pink, Ty Segall, Wavves and similar acts. For this show he had Adam Granduciel, who is also in his other band War on Drugs, drummer Mike Zanghi and harpist Mary Lattimore, who can also be heard on The Valerie Project.

The whole lot.



Adam and an appropriately hunched Kurt Vile.



For some reason it's hard to take a good harp photo.



Mike shakes it.

Hmm, what to step on next.



Kurt sings!



More Mary!


Kurt goes acoustic!



Adam works the six-string.



Vile action!



Bonus Adam.



Extra Mike.



Adam goes down!



The end!



He's currently on tour in Texas.
