Vampire Weekend

As you probably already know, the guys in Vampire Weekend graduated from Columbia. They aren't poor. With their dapper, upper-crust fashion sense, it often looks like they just walked off the set of 'The Royal Tenenbaums.' And -- just in case you missed out while reading all the beard-stroking think-pieces about their position as indie-rock high-brow trend-setters -- they've also released two exce

The 'Modern Vampires' -- i.e. Vampire Weekend -- swarmed 'the City' (that'd be Manhattan) this past Saturday night (May 11), taking to the 'SNL' stage to perform two songs from their forthcoming album, 'Modern Vampires of the City.'

Vampire Weekend have dropped a lyric video for their track 'Ya Hey' from 'Modern Vampires of the City,' out May 14. But don't roll your eyes, since it's not just words on screen. It's actually a visually interesting clip that presents itself like an atrsy commercial you'd see in Europe.

Last night (April 28), Vampire Weekend took the stage of NYC’s Roseland Ballroom for a highly anticipated show as part of American Express Unstaged concert series. The gig featured two brand-new songs and was broadcast to the masses via a live webcast directed by actor Steve Buscemi. Watch the NYC indie gents perform ‘Obvious Bicycle’ (above) and ‘Everlasting Arms’ (below).

If they can stop palling around with Steve Buscemi for five minutes, Vampire Weekend will play 'SNL.' Bobby Womack is one year cancer-free, and he's going to celebrate with thousands of friends. (Including Damon Albarn.)

"Do you remember when you first fell in love with Easter," Vampire Weekend's Chris Baio asks actor Steve Buscemi in a new promo video (watch above) for the band's upcoming American Express Unstaged live webcast, which Busemi will direct. Buscemi oddly waxes nostalgic about the holiday -- "I couldn't sleep the night before, thinking about how many eggs I was gonna get," he recal

Last month, Vampire Weekend recruited Steve Buscemi to march with them in an Easter parade, and now, the band has teamed up with the acclaimed actor for a bowling adventure at Melody Lanes in Brooklyn, N.Y.

East Coast, represent! More specifically: New York boroughs, represent! Vampire Weekend, products of Columbia University in uptown Manhattan, will team up with Brooklynite actor and director (and distant relative of a Weekend'er, it turns out) Steve Buscemi for their upcoming show at Roseland Ballroom in NYC, which takes place on April 28. Buscemi will direct a webcast, which will air as part of t

Possibly trying to regain some goodwill after the bizarre public relations nightmare that ignited over the decision to torch a few Saabs in their new 'Diane Young' video, Vampire Weekend recruited beloved character actor Steve Buscemi to march with them in yesterday's (March 31) Easter Parade and Easter Bonnet Festival in New York City.

The Internet was aflutter this morning thanks to Vampire Weekend's appearance on the Canadiann show 'QTV,' where they played three songs from their forthcoming album 'Modern Vampires of the City.' Ezra Koenig and the boys tore through lead single, 'Diane Young' (watch above at 6:20); 'Unbelievers" (below at 19:09); and 'Ya Hey' (below 43:34). The videos also include rather in-depth interviews
