Earlier this month, Vampire Weekend made an exciting announcement that got fans buzzing. The indie rock band revealed that they will be releasing a vinyl-only live album series, starting with “Frog On The Bass Drum Vol. 01 Live In Indianapolis.” This album features recordings from their June 2019 show in Indianapolis, including their impressive cover of Bob Dylan‘s “Jokerman.” Fans and music enthusiasts alike eagerly awaited the accompanying newsletter, which was expected to be released on June 7.
Although delayed, the newsletter contained some intriguing updates about what the band has been up to, and these updates are now making waves across the internet. According to drummer Chris Tomson, lead vocalist Ezra Koenig recently took a raga singing lesson with renowned composer Terry Riley in rural Japan. He was inspired by this experience and went on to write what he considers to be seven of his top ten best songs. This revelation has sparked anticipation among fans, as they eagerly await the release of this unnamed album, which is said to be the follow-up to their critically acclaimed 2019 release, “Father Of The Bride.” Tomson assures fans that the album is nearly complete and promises further updates by the end of the year. He even boldly claims that this upcoming album might be their best work yet, with ten incredible songs and no skips.
Aside from this exciting update, Vampire Weekend also revealed that their next volume in the vinyl series, titled “From On The Bass Drum Vol. 02: Una Notte A Milano Con Vampire Weekend,” will be announced soon. Fans are eagerly waiting for the band’s next move and are excited to see what more Vampire Weekend has in store for them.
It’s clear that Vampire Weekend is continuing to push boundaries and experiment with their sound. Their dedication to creating exceptional music shines through in all their endeavors. As they continue to evolve as a band, their fans can’t help but be thrilled for what the future holds. With a mention of their cover song, Bob Dylan, and other artists like Terry Riley, Vampire Weekend is sure to capture the attention of a wide audience with their upcoming releases.
