Video: Vampire Weekend unveil guest-packed ‘Diane Young’ promo


Vampire Weekend have premiered the video for their recent single ‘Diane Young‘, which is packed full of guest appearances from the likes of Dirty Projectors Dave Longstreth and Hamilton Leithauser of The Walkmen. It can be viewed via YouTube below.

The track is taken from Vampire Weekend’s 2013 LP ‘Modern Vampires Of The City‘, which Ezra Koenig has previously told Q is a natural continuation from their first two records.

“We created some characters on the first record, some of which are real people, some of which are ourselves, so it’s not so hard to keep following them and see what their concerns are now and how their lives have changed,” he said.

Vampire Weekend are due to play a part in Mumford & Sons‘ latest Gentlemen Of The Road series of concerts when it arrives in Lewes on July 19th, and will also support the band when they headline London’s Olympic Park complex on July 6th.
