My Morning Download 1/9/08 - Vampire Weekend


The New York based Vampire Weekend - this month's Artist To Watch - don't make music that sounds anything like the images that their name conjours up. The hotly buzzed Columbia U grads and indie-rock band owe more to Afro-pop and Peter Gabriel and Paul Simon's Graceland than they do to Pavement of The Shins but sound good next to either. The band's self-titled debut is being released on January 29th and they'll be back in town to play on February 7th at the First Unitarian Church.
