Vampire Weekend have announced details of a nationwide tour, including an appearance at Wolverhampton’s Civic Hall.

The New York indie sensations will bring their distinctive blend of accessible melodies and worldly rhythms to the North Street venue on November 26, as part of only a handful of shows in this country.

The band, whose second album Contra reached number three in the UK charts on its release in January and topped the indie charts, are currently facing a reported $2 billion dollar lawsuit from the cover star of the record.

The  full tour dates are:

25th November – Blackpool Empress Ballroom Arena

26th November – Wolverhampton Civic Hall

28th November – Edinburgh Corn Exchange

29th November – Sheffield O2 Academy

1st December  – Brighton Centre

2nd December -  London Alexandra Palace

Tickets go on general sale Friday 23rd July at 9am and can be found here.

Meanwhile, Vampire Weekend, who last night closed the Latitude Festival in Suffolk, will release a new single White Sky on August 16, taken from Contra.
