Vampire Weekend will have the honour of having a live stream of their concerted directed by famed Hollywood actor, Steve Buscemi.
Vampire Weekend will be playing New York City’s Roseland Ballroom which will be streamed live for fans and will be directed by Buscemi. The actor has also been spending lots of time with the band and recording backstage moments. This documentary footage will be released prior to the band’s show.
Buscemi is best known for his work on blockbusters like HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA and BIG FISH as well as cult hits like GHOST WORLD. Buscemi is an accomplished actor and director, but his connection to Vampire Weekend doesn’t just end there!
Recently, while researching his family tree, bassist Chris Baio discovered that he and Steve Buscemi are actually distant cousins! When Baio revealed this news to Buscemi, the actor was as thrilled by the find as Baio!
