Vampire Weekend – Horchata.

Pigeons and Planes just gave me an extremely, extremely trill joint from indie rock / pop / folklore band Vampire Weekend. The Columbia University grads sound like Paul Simon in 2010, and I’m all about that. This new joint is called “Horchata”, and it’s the first single from their upcoming album, Contra. I hope they named it after the video game, but I highly doubt it.

I’m sitting here jamming while trying to figure out what the meaning of the song is. Those xylophones are something special though! I’m about to get some horchata in December and just sip it. Sounds great.
