Sounding like an African rhythm section locked up with some college wunderkind in a basement studio in Manhattan, New York City, who together turned musical captivity into a grand jamboree. Kid you not - they describe themselves as "Upper West Side Soweto".

These young strutters have only been together since 2006, but their unique sound and twisted talents created a buzz which they managed to record and release to applause, the crowd went wild, and has ever since.

Vampire Weekend is named after a student film made by singer/guitarist Ezra Koenig. Key player Rostam Batmanglij writes scores for movies. They have the soundtrack to a good time up their sleeves and will shuffle the card into the deck on a regular basis.

Their first album (self titled) debuted in the top 20 in the US and UK. Their second album Contra came out this year and made #1 in the US and #2 in Australia. Singles Oxford Comma, Horchata and Cousins are in our veins.

Indie pop darlings of confusion and delight return to OZ to sprinkle abandon, discovery and revelry. Listen good.
