Vampire Weekend
This band will always just sound like summer.
Overview
It may not feel like it, but it's been seven years since these iconic indie poppers first bopped onto the scene. In that time, tracks such as 'A-Punk' and 'Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa' have provided soundtrack to every sun-drenched house party and most feel-good hits at the movies; their self-titled debut album has been inducted as both a staple to your summer roadtrip playlist, and a classic in the indie hall of fame.
Now, a few years and two albums later, Vampire Weekend are on their way down under to bring some infectious summer fun to both Falls Festival and Melbourne's Festival Hall. On tour for their latest album Modern Vampires of the City, the boys from NYC are showing off a slightly more grownup side — the songs are no longer about drearily walking to a class at college, but about the impending troubles of adulthood. But don't worry, there will no doubt be some throwbacks to their vibrant early days, and the songs still shine as bright as ever. This is a band that will always just sound like summer.
