On Monday, Kurt Vile appeared on Australian game show RocKwiz, where he performed his Wakin on a Pretty Daze cut “Snowflakes are Dancing” as well as a cover of Neil Young’s “Albuquerque” alongside singer Phoebe Baker.
For each episode of RocKwiz, two musicians/musical celebrities and four contestants compete for bragging rights in a music trivia game. Additionally, the show’s musical guests each give an individual performance alongside the RocKwiz Orchestra before closing out the show with a duet.
Watch both of Vile’s performances below.
