Willy Vlautin (Richmond Fontaine Single Launch)

Event information

Portland's cult country rockers Richmond Fontaine are releasing a single - You Can Move Back Here- with Trash Aesthetics. To celebrate, we are hosting a very special launch party at our favourite Fitzrovian dive bar, The Social.

The band's mainman - Willy Vlautin - is in town for just one night to perform an exclusive set and sign your records. We then have a host of *very special guests*, surprises, presents and DJs to turn the place upside down till the wee wee hours.

Twice Uncut's Album of the Month, and described by the Independent as "Dylan of the dislocated", the Richmond Fontaine remain close to the hearts of fans and critics alike. Willy's own writing is published by Faber, and his second novel Northline is currently being made into a motion picture. In You Can Move Back Here, Vlautin deploys his talent for lyrical minimalism that has drawn comparison to the short stories of Raymond Carver.
