about

It features one of Vega’s last recordings, “You Pay” (which was produced and co-written with Mr. Pharmacist), and it comes with remixes by Jim Sclavunos (of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds) and Jim Thirlwell (of Foetus), with contributions from Nick Zinner and White Hills. It comes out March 8 via Jesse Malin and Don Dilego’s Velvet Elk Records (Order), but they’ll also have copies available at the show, with proceeds benefiting children’s music education programs.
