So are these two different groups - Courtney Barnett, and then Kurt Vile and the Sea Lice; or is it Courtney Barnett and Kurt Vile, and then the Sea Lice; is it three different groups, or is it all one group?
The inter-continental duo will share the stage, performing songs off their upcoming album as well as delving into their respective back catalogues and covering a bunch of classics, all backed by their band ‘The Sea Lice,’ a revolving cast of musicians including Janet Weiss (Sleater-Kinney, Wild Flag), Stella Mozgawa (Warpaint), Rob Laakso (The Violators, The Swirlies, Mice Parade) and Katie Harkin (Harkin, Sky Larkin and touring member of Sleater-Kinney and Wild Beasts). “A cookin’ band and an intercontinental country duo for the ages—minus the country,” says Vile.
So ultimately it's all one group. Cool, sounds interesting.
I just saw that they're playing HSBG on Sunday, maybe I'll see them there, but I am planning on going to the War On Drugs show at the Greek that Friday.
I know almost nothing about War On Drugs, except that a recording of theirs was playing as pre-show house music in the Grate Room at TxR one night maybe two years ago and it caught my ear. There was hardly anyone in the room at the time and I enjoyed what I heard so much I asked the guy who it was. I've missed them the last time or two they've come my way, but I am casually looking forward to seeing them at the Greek, even though now I can't really remember what they sounded like... dark & moody perhaps, Pink Floydish maybe? I can't remember, I just remember being interested and thinking it could be good live.
I hesitate to watch or listen to anything of theirs now; I enjoy going into shows not really knowing what I'm going to get, as long as I have some reason to think that I could like it.
Pre-conceived expectations can be such a drag.
I'm going to watch some of this Courtney/Vile stuff though, because I know nothing of them.

I like Vile more all the time, haven't warmed up to Barnett yet but haven't given her much of a chance.
That PA War on drugs scene has turned into one of the most promising musical hubs for cultivating new quality artists of the last 10 years:
Vile, Steve Gunn, Cian Nugent, Jim Elkington, etc.
Really good stuff

The inter-continental duo
The inter-continental duo will share the stage, performing songs off their upcoming album as well as delving into their respective back catalogues and covering a bunch of classics, all backed by their band ‘The Sea Lice,’ a revolving cast of musicians including Janet Weiss (Sleater-Kinney, Wild Flag), Stella Mozgawa (Warpaint), Rob Laakso (The Violators, The Swirlies, Mice Parade) and Katie Harkin (Harkin, Sky Larkin and touring member of Sleater-Kinney and Wild Beasts). “A cookin’ band and an intercontinental country duo for the ages—minus the country,” says Vile.
