Vampire Weekend have announced a 2024 North American tour and shared the first two singles from their upcoming album Only God Was Above: “Capricorn” and “Gen-X Cops.”
The 39-date tour kicks off in early June, following the band’s record release show in Austin and festival appearances at New Orleans Jazz Fest, Kilby Block Party in Salt Lake City, and Primavera Sound in Barcelona. As part of the North American headlining run, they’ll play multiple shows at Madison Square Garden in New York, Huntington Bank Pavilion in Chicago, KettleHouse Amphitheater in Bonner, MT, and The Greek Theatre in Berkeley. Perhaps most exciting for Jamie Lee Curtis, Vampire Weekend’s visits to New York, Bonner, and Berkeley include matinee shows.
On their upcoming tour, Vampire Weekend will also share the stage with an eclectic mix of support acts, including Phish’s Mike Gordon, Maya Rudolph’s Prince cover band Princess, The English Beat, Ra Ra Riot, Cults, and the Billy Joel tribute act Turnstiles.
