VAMPIRE WEEKEND ANNOUNCES RADIO CITY MUSIC HALL SHOW

Vampire Weekend is excited to headline New York’s legendary Radio City Music Hall on Wednesday September 15th, 2010. Tickets for the show will be available for pre-sale on February 24th  12noon e.s.t. via Ticketmaster. The general sale starts on February 26th at 12noon e.s.t.

The band’s sophomore release, Contra, was released by XL Recordings on January 12th and debuted at #1 on the Billboard chart, which was a first for a truly independent release by an indie rock band. The album has received rave reviews and the band has performed on The Late Show With David Letterman, The Tonight Show With Conan O’Brien and The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson, with more to come. Vampire Weekend played three sold-out New York shows in mid-January celebrating Contra's release, and The Radio City Music Hall show will be the band’s first hometown performance in 8 months.

Vampire Weekend will begin a North American tour on March 14th in Edmonton, Alberta after spending nearly a month overseas. The tour will continue through to mid-April with a performance at the Coachella Festival. The band will also be playing at the Sasquatch Festival in late May in addition to numerous festivals all over the world this summer.
