Kurt Vile covers Bruce Springsteen on new EP

Kurt Vile is set to release a new six-track EP called 'So Outta Reach' on November 7.

The EP is made up of five new tracks as well as a version of Bruce Springsteen's 'Downbound Train'. The five original songs were recorded during the sessions for Vile's album 'Smoke Ring For My Halo', but were not used on the final record. The songs were reworked with producer John Agnello over the summer for the EP.

The EP will be made available digitally and on 12" vinyl. EP track 'The Creature' can be downloaded for free at Matadorrecords.com.

The 'So Outta Reach' tracklisting is:

'The Creature'
'It's Alright'
'Life's A Beach'
'Laughing Stock'
'Downbound Train'
'(so outta reach)'


Kurt Vile And The Violators play tonight (September 6) at Glasgow Stereo, tomorrow at Bristol The Fleece and on September 8 at London Scala.
