Hamilton Leithauser and Rostam Batmanglij, both hailing from Washington D.C., have been acquaintances since 2008. Their relationship began well before their creative partnership led to the 2016 release of their joint album, I Had a Dream That You Were Mine.
The duo kicked off their much-anticipated tour with a performance at the 9:30 Club. This event marks a significant moment for fans, offering a chance to experience their indie rock collaboration live.
Leithauser is best known for his work with The Walkmen, while Batmanglij gained fame as a member of Vampire Weekend. Their album blends a variety of influences, showcasing their unique styles and musical synergy.
Their performance at the 9:30 Club signifies a homecoming of sorts, as both artists have strong connections to the city. The venue is a storied space for live music, making it an ideal starting point for their tour.
