Watch Squirrel Kurt Vile Sing a Song About Nuts on HBO’s "Animals"

“Animals” is HBO’s new animated series about anthropomorphic New York City animals. A previous episode featured A$AP Rocky and A$AP Ferg as rapping cats. In this week’s episode, Kurt Vile plays a squirrel. He sings a song about nuts to some other squirrels, who are fans of his music. (And if his Philly Boy Roy shirt is any indication, Squirrel Vile is a Scharpling & Wurster fan.) Vile has also added more dates to his tour, including an appearance at this year’s Lollapalooza.
