Vampire Weekend releases Madison Square Garden live album

The limited edition double LP is now available

Vampire Weekend has revealed the contents of their Frog on the Bass Drum, Volume 3 package to be Weekend At The Garden, a limited edition double LP recorded live at Madison Square Garden during their landmark sold-out two-in-one weekend performances in October 2024.

Disc one will contain songs recorded during the Saturday night show, while disc two will contain performances from the Sunday Matinee.

Frog on the Bass Drum is Vampire Weekend’s vinyl-only live series. Volume 1, Live In Minneapolis, contains a ten-minute cover of Bob Dylan’s “Jokerman,” while Volume 2: Una Notte A Milano (Live From Milan) features a double version of “Bambina.” As always, the LPs are pressed by Third Man Records and are limited. Weekend at The Garden will be limited to three thousand copies. Frog on the Bass Drum subscribers will also be treated to a limited edition pennant flag and the newest issue of “The Quarterly Report,” personally written by the band.
