Afro-Collegiate rockers Vampire Weekend are finally teasing their follow-up to their brilliant 2008 self-titled debut.
The lead single is named after a strange milky concoction originally from Valencia, Spain, whose variants have seeped all over Latin America.
I've tried a few varieties of horchata from either side of the Atlantic, and honestly, I'm not a big fan.
What I am a fan of though, is Vampire Weekend's nifty take on the the traditional drink:
Boys, bring on Contra. I can't wait!
I saw them play at the bluebird on their last tour, having never heard of them before. A friend was going and after a few HH cocktails, I was ready for something new and tagged along. Really cool show to see at the BlueBird (I think)! The only odd part was the bassist kept his ass to the crowd for most of the show (and it was not all that).
ReplyDeleteBought a copy of their CD on the way out, I was so impressed!
They played Monolith at Red Rocks last year and it was an amazing show. We must have had that album on endless repeat for a good chunk of 2008.
