Kurt Vile is the American (born in Lansdowne, Pennsylvania) and Courtney Barnett is the (Sydney born) Australian. Vile has a few years on Barnett, both in terms of time on the planet and length of career; their new collaboration Lotta Sea Lice is Kurt's seventh album. For Courtney, it's full-length number two. However, balance is achieved by virtue of Barnett attracting a bit more music-world buzz the past couple of years. Lotta Sea Lice is a set of songs from two unpretentious musicians who really work well together.
