Vampire Weekend

In July 2018, Vampire Weekend graced the Fuji Rock Festival stage in Japan, showcasing tracks from their anticipated album 'Father of the Bride,' which had yet to be released at the time. This live performance was a pivotal moment for the band, marking their return after a hiatus since 2013's 'Modern Vampires of the City.' 'Diane Young,' a fan favorite from that last album, made waves at the festival, with its upbeat energy resonating perfectly in the vibrant setting. Interestingly, 'Father of the Bride' would later delve into themes of love and existential dilemmas, capturing the band's growth while the crowd reveled in the nostalgic vibes of previous hits. With a sound that intertwines indie rock with world influences, Vampire Weekend continues to evolve, leaving audiences at Fuji Rock craving more of their innovative style.
