Visit Resident for an exclusive Vampire Weekend's airing and Mince Pies.

Dear old Vampire Weekend have an album on the horizon due out on 11th January. It's very good and the debut single video is great - it features bright colours, glitter cannons, bells and is all very jolly and fun (we are big fans). Today Resident will be hosting an exclusive playback of the full album, 'Contra' between 6pm & 8pm today.

Importantly, there will be beer, mulled wine & mice pies* which is a good premise to potter in store over latest releases and Christmas presents - lots of good things down to £4.99 from the Volcano Choir (Justin Vernon of Bon Iver's side project), Royksopp, Reverend & The Makers, Metric, Toumani Diabate, Kitty Daisy & Lewis & more. Most importantly it's a good time to eat tasty things, feel warm and Christmassy, and get a free hearing of some lovely tunes.

Bring some I.D and have fun.

*whilst they last.
