Vampire Weekend - Walcott - Pitchfork Live

[@AG-mh3gf]

I absolutely am obsessed with this live version of Walcott. It's superb and besides that; A) Ezra has the voice of an angel B) The violins slay C) This is the most quintessential VW song in my humblest of opinions.

[@ZenmodX]

~3 years late but this song is one of the most underrated VW songs.

[@HotStrange]

Annmarie Grossi definitely my favorite off the first album.

[@robcrellen9171]

This and Hannah Hunt are my favourites!

[@christiankellerman9206]

One of the best songs released this century

The violin brings me to tears

[@Mjhaider1985]

+Maeve M. they're perfect

[@ThatGooner]

It sounds slightly off and less weighty without the familiar piano part but, like M79, having those violins be so front and centre is so, so great to listen to.

[@SamM_Scot]

Must've played their classic debut to death during my college years. This live version of Walcott is just simply amazing :-)

[@BongoAndBoingo]

goddamn rostam is so talented

[@briannowak3803]

Wow, hate discovering this so late. I admire all of you who came before me.

[@MarkCadiz-p7q]

the orchestration is so beautiful....thank you Vampire Weekend!

[@m1randa]

i’m high and literally cried at how beautiful this is, those violins...

[@lu1s4ngel]

2019 and still rocking this everyday!

[@TheContemporaryKid]

I don't know if it's the dudes voice, the acoustics in the room, or both, but goddamn, this sounds angelic

[@ronster369]

Just discovered this tonight. So glad I did. You must see M79 Pitchfork Live as the encore. I promise you will not be disappointed.

[@vivacitalarghetta]

1. Shawl sweater + Ezra = :) 2. Rostam's mesmerizing, beautiful arrangement + strings. The florid string harmonies reminded me of the beginning of the Flower Duet from Lakmé...

[@HipsterFoxx]

the emotions are real when the guy digs deep into that chello

[@Mika_565]

Love this rendition.

[@ayymiiiee]

2017 and this is still GOLD

[@oliverstannard4259]

I do believe Rostams guitar here is the same acoustic they use when playing some of the new songs like Unbelievers...

[@xxMidnightBonesxx]

[@tristagolike2022]

Wow, they are great live! Thanks for sharing. I love this!

[@majidalansari680]

Am I dreaming? Is that facial hair on Ezra??

[@burkeharris9699]

[@lunlunchou]

[@kakashilazycyclopsneegee882]

roastom doesn't talk

[@spkyjim895]

Kakashilazy Cyclops Nee Gee *rostam and he does the backup vocals on most of their songs . plus he's the keyboardist and there was no keyboard here so he just played backup guitar ??? i guess u would call it

[@squintsyadams8463]

Cape Cod and Mystic aren't necessarily dissimilar.

[@redicorodriguez1049]
