Steve Buscemi to direct Vampire Weekend live stream
By Aly Barchi | Published on Wednesday 3 April 2013
Vampire Weekend are collaborating with actor Steve Buscemi to present a special show on 28 Apr. Taking place at NYC’s Roseland Ballroom as part of American Express’s ‘AmEx Unstaged’ initiative and with Buscemi directing, it’ll stream in real time via YouTube, Vevo and amexunstaged.com.
The band have been hyping it all via Rolling Stone, and say they’ll play half the tracks featuring on their new LP, ‘Modern Vampires Of The City’, which is released on 13 May.
Bassist Chris Baio adds: “Playing a hometown show is a really intense and great experience. We haven’t played a full New York show in two-and-a-half years, so we’re gonna be really well-rehearsed”.
Here’s a relevant trailer:
