Kurt Vile joins Ethan Buckler for King Kong song in Louisville
Buckler, who contributed backing vocals to Vile’s latest album, appeared at Headliners for “Old Man On The Bridge.”
Ethan Buckler joined Kurt Vile onstage at Headliners in Louisville on Nov. 6 to perform “Old Man On The Bridge” by King Kong. Buckler, of Slint and King Kong, was appearing in his hometown.
The musicians also collaborated on Vile’s latest album, Philadelphia's been good to me. Buckler provided backing vocals for its lead single, “Chance To Bleed.”
The Louisville concert followed a Nov. 2 appearance by Vile and the Violators on The Tonight Show, where they performed “99 BPM.” Host Jimmy Fallon had previously mocked “Old Man On The Bridge” in a “Do Not Play” segment, though the song soon found fans in both Fallon and Questlove.
