Last night Vampire Weekend performed “Sympathy” from their widely acclaimed album, Father of the Bride on the The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Having previously been guests of Stephen Colbert on The Colbert Report, Vampire Weekend returned to the Ed Sullivan Theater for their first Late Show appearance since Colbert took the helm. The performance can be viewed here.
