KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas 2009: Vampire Weekend + Exclusive Track
“Cousins” is our new single. It’s off of our album Contra which is out January 12th.
We recorded it at an awesome studio in Mexico City owned by Tito from the band Molotov and we first played it live at a show in Guadalajara. The video was directed by Hammer & Tongs who also did “A-Punk” from our first record. We’ve been playing it every night on our all-California tour. Check it out!
Can’t wait to come back to LA for KROQ’s Almost Acoustic Christmas!”
