Vampire Weekend

On May 25, 2013, Vampire Weekend performed "Cousins" live at the Ansan Valley Rock Festival in South Korea, and it was an electrifying moment in their career. At this time, the band had just released their third album, "Modern Vampires of the City," which came out earlier that month. This album marked a significant evolution in their sound, showcasing darker and more introspective themes compared to their earlier, lighter work. Fans were buzzing with excitement about the new material, and the live performance became a memorable highlight for those at the festival. Interestingly, recording this event captured the band at a pivot point; they were transitioning from their upbeat roots into a more mature sound, making this live version of "Cousins" reflect both their past vibrancy and their ongoing artistic growth.
