Nardwuar vs. Rex Orange County
The Human Serviette knows everything.
Nardwuar linked up with Rex Orange County after his performance in Vancouver’s Vogue Theatre earlier this week. In usual Nardwuar the Human Serviette fashion, he magically knew about about Rex’s father, Green Day influence, high school days and more.
Rex Orange County is a UK singer-songwriter best known for his songs “Loving is Easy,” “Best Friend” and “Sunflower.” Tyler, the Creator put Rex on last year with the release of Flower Boy, of which he was featured on “Foreward” and “Boredom.” Back in May, he and Randy Newman released a new version of Toy Story song “You’ve Got a Friend in Me.” Rex is currently on the last few dates of his North America tour. He will play at Portland tonight, Santa Ana on August 12th and Los Angeles on the 13th.
