Vampire Weekend

In June 2014, Vampire Weekend took the Bonnaroo stage, an electrifying moment that showcased their dynamic energy and musical evolution post-release of 'Modern Vampires of the City.' This album, which debuted in 2013, marked a pivotal point for the band, receiving critical acclaim and showcasing deeper lyrical themes and sophisticated instrumentation. During the Bonnaroo performance, they delivered 'Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa,' a fan favorite that brilliantly encapsulated their signature blend of indie rock and world music influences. It’s interesting to note that their performance came right after a period of intense touring, which likely contributed to the vibrant energy of the live recording. Armed with newfound confidence and creative maturity from their previous successes, this show reflected a band comfortably commanding their place in the indie music landscape.
