Vampire Weekend and White Williams are teaming up for what is sure to be the best-dressed tour of the year. The sartorially savvy bill comes to Midwestern and West Coast cities in September, capped by two L.A. performances with equally rad dudes Abe Vigoda.

Both VW and WW have solo dates before and after their tour together. Vampire Weekend's next show is August 22 in Reading, England, and Williams' next one is August 15 in NYC.

On the recording front, Vampire Weekend contribute the new song "Ottoman", recorded with Devo's Mark Mothersbaugh, to the Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist soundtrack. White Williams' remix of Born Ruffians' "Red, Yellow & Blue" is out September 30 on Warp.
