Vampire Weekend have announced a North American tour in support of their forthcoming album Father of the Bride. The trek kicks off in May with a festival slot at Gulf Shores, Alabama’s Hangout Music Fest. The tour also includes the band’s recently announced Madison Square Garden show. Find their schedule below. Tickets are available here. Among the selected support acts are Angélique Kidjo, Chicano Batman, Despot, Soccer Mommy, Tinariwen, and Christone “Kingfish” Ingram.
Vampire Weekend’s tour follows a return to the festival circuit in 2018. Father of the Bride, the band’s fourth album, is out this spring via Columbia Records. It’s VW’s first record since Modern Vampires of the City came out back in 2013.
FOTB includes the new songs “Harmony Hall” and “2021.” Vampire Weekend plan to drop two new songs every month leading up to the album.
