The best song of the week: Pretty Pimpin
âPretty Pimpinâ by Kurt Vile
The artist: A former member of popular indie-rock band The War on Drugs, American singer-songwriter Kurt Vile has a very distinctive brand of easygoing cool.
â˘Â Song of the week: Damn Baby
â˘Â Song of the week: Panama City
â˘Â Song of the week: Here
â˘Â Song of the week: Dreams
â˘Â Song of the week: True Detectiveâs surprise hit
Pretty Pimpin is the first single off his forthcoming album bâlieve iâm goin down, which is out September 25 this year. With humorous lyrics and a melancholic guitar twang, itâs chill-out music with bite.
The vibe: A really talented musician waxes lyrical about his day-to-day life against an addictive country-esque backing track. Music that doesnât try too hard.
Listen to it when: Relaxing by the fire (or electric heater) with a good book. Or if you want to prove to your friends that youâre hip and cool.
Sounds like: The War on Drugs, Wilco, Ryan Adams.
