Matador Records just announced that Kurt Vile’s forthcoming album Wakin On A Pretty Daze, which was produced by John Agnello in multiple studios throughout the Northeast, will be coming out on April 9, and is a 69-minute double album. The label shared the single called “Wakin On A Pretty Day” (yes, that is the correct title and not a typo). You can listen to it below accompanied by outtakes from the Steve Powers (ESPO) documentary about the making of the cover album mural (however, it is not the official music video for the song). The track is available for free download which you can do so HERE, where you can also find more info about Vile’s upcoming tour with The Fresh & Onlys and Angel Olsen as well as vinyl, track listing, and pre-order details. If you happen to be in NYC tomorrow, you can win an invitation to attend the record listening party (with complimentary beverages like the custom-made featured cocktail “Pretty Daze”) at Electric Lady Studios by submitting HERE. Kurt Vile & the Violators will be performing next in Philly on Saturday, May 18 at Union Transfer.
