KURT VILE & THE VIOLATORS KV'S BEEN GOOD TO ME TOUR 2. 9. 2026 -- ARCHA+, Prague Special Guest: SOLEX American singer-songwriter Kurt Vile returns to Prague with his band The Violators. As part of the KV'S BEEN GOOD TO ME TOUR, he will perform on September 2, 2026 at ARCHA+ and present his new album Philadelphia's Been Good to Me, released symbolically in the year marking the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States as well as his hometown of Philadelphia. The record, largely self-produced, is his most personal and authentic work to date---built on an organic sound, strong melodies, and distinctive guitar work, while paying tribute to the city that shaped both his musical and personal journey. Released in God's year of 2026, the 250th anniversary of the founding of America in Kurt Vile's fine city of Philadelphia, Philadelphia's been good to me finds one of our nation's greatest songwriters staking a claim on his hometown. "This is my 'bringing it all back home to Philly' record," Vile says. "I'm treating it like my last one. I put everything into it. It's my best vocal record. It's my best electric guitar record. It's my most organic record, made in the comfort of my own zone." Largely self-produced, with assists from Adam Langellotti, keys wiz Matthew Jugenheimer, drummer Kyle Spence, guitarist Jesse Trbovrich, and longtime Violators boardsman Rob Schnapf, the record embodies Vile's understanding of music as a conversation between people across time and space. The title track is an ode to his hometown that doubles as an homage to Tom Petty's homage to California. The barn-burning "Chance to Bleed" features guest spots from Memphis OGs Natalie Hoffman and Greg Cartwright but boasts a music video proudly shot at the Philly venue Kung Fu Necktime and features a cameo by local legend Schoolly D. "You Don't Know Cuz It's My Life" is Kurt's take on a stadium anthem, building up to a laid-back yet triumphant chant of "I'm from Phil-a-del-phiaaaaaaah!" that
