“You’d never knew until you showed up that day and started playing what exactly it was going to sound like. “The beauty of the Velvet Underground is that the possibilities are endless,” Vile says. It’s an absolute honor to have every one of these artists on a Verve recording and we hope this album finds a welcome place in the record collections of VU fans new and old.” “We were so lucky to partner with the late Hal Willner to pay tribute to the band’s iconic first album. “The VU are a fundamental part of Verve’s history, and their fearless approach and musical integrity continue to inspire all of us at the label,” head of Verve Records Jamie Krents said in a statement. Vincent and Thomas Bartlett, and Sharon Van Etten with Angel Olsen it was executive-produced by the late Hal Willner and marks the last record Lou Reed’s old friend and producer worked on before his his death in 2020.

Now, he’s contributing a new take - with his band the Violators - to I’ll Be Your Mirror: A Tribute to the Velvet Underground & Nico, out September 24th via Vile’s new label Verve Records. Kurt Vile first covered the Velvet Underground’s “Run Run Run” when he was 18 at a show in Landsdowne, Pennsylvania - complete with “take a drag or two” subbed out for the local crowd-pleasing “Landsdowne Avenue.” He then performed it with the Velvets’ John Cale in 2017 in honor of the 50th anniversary of The Velvet Underground & Nico.
