Mistletone, Drum Media and The Thousands proudly present for the first time in Australia, Kurt Vile & The Violators, playing Oxford Art Factory on Tuesday December 6.

Kurt Vile has been on a slow burn accent since 2008, steadily rising from the American underground through relentless touring and the release of four smashing albums. The culmination of this groundwork was this year's epic Smoke Ring For My Halo, which perfectly showcases the amazing range of Kurt's music. Its tender and evocative, elusive but companionable, tough in the gut and the arm, swollen in the chest and giddy in the head. Its a record that is perfect for any given day in whatever season, to satisfy all moods in every possible scenario, first thing in the morning or last thing at night, today, tomorrow or five years from now. Kurt Vile is touring with his crack ensemble The Violators, who add the perfect modicum of live grunt to Kurt's songs and make them roar. Catch Kurt Vile and The Violators at Oxford Art Factory on Tuesday December 6 with very special guests Royal Headache and Step-Panther.

Tickets on sale from Moshtix Tuesday August 23 at 9am.
