Kurt Vile

Kurt Vile drops in to see Huw just after wrapping up his UK tour, and they talk all things Philadelphia's Been Good to Me.

Kurt Vile joins Huw just after wrapping up his UK tour, guitar still humming and stories still spilling out! Huw and Kurt dive deep into Philadelphia’s Been Good to Me, the hazy, heartfelt record that finds Vile reflecting on home and his heroes.

We'll also get to know Jawdropped in this week's Huw Are You and we'll have another quiz from Huw's Music Quiz Generator, giving one of you the opportunity to win a Music Sounds Better With Huw pinbadge.
