Stare Into the Screen Not the Sun: Vampire Weekend to Livestream Special Solar Eclipse Show


Vampire Weekend have announced livestream details for their upcoming special show in Austin, which will coincide with a total solar eclipse.

To celebrate the 2024 total eclipse — and the release of their new album, Only God Was Above Us — Vampire Weekend will play a special midday show in Austin, Texas, which will also be available to livestream. To coincide with the astronomical event, Vampire Weekend will start playing at 12 p.m. CT, with the eclipse expected to reach totality around 1:36 p.m., bringing full darkness for a couple of minutes in the middle of the day. Following the Austin gig, Vampire Weekend will play a couple of festival dates in New Orleans and Salt Lake City before kicking off a proper tour in support of Only God Was Above Us June 6 in Houston.
