Video: Vampire Weekend: Various Songs (Live on "Morning Becomes Eclectic")

Vampire Weekend was on Nic Harcourt's "Morning Becomes Eclectic" last week-- they videotape these sessions now-- playing four familar tunes from their self-titled debut (almost the whole record, actually) and some songs not on the record ("Boston", from the Blue CD-R). They also talk quite a bit about their influences, noting that Dirty Projectors' interest in music from Africa was a catalyst.
