Vampire Weekend Live Performance of Run at House of Blues in Cleveland

Venue: House of Blues Location: Cleveland, Ohio, United States Date: July 12, 2012

On July 12, 2012, Vampire Weekend performed at the House of Blues in Cleveland, a pivotal moment in their career following the release of their album 'Contra' in 2010. By this time, the band had already solidified their status in the indie rock scene with catchy melodies and smart lyrics. The live recording of 'Run' showcases their energetic stage presence and the evolution of their sound, moving further into complex arrangements. Interestingly, this period also marked a transitional phase as the band was beginning to work on their third studio album, 'Modern Vampires of the City,' which would come out the following year. Their ability to engage audiences during live performances, combined with their unmistakable style, really shines through in this recording, making it a must-watch for fans and newcomers alike.
