Vampire Weekend is an American rock band from New York City, formed in 2006. Their fourth studio album Father of the Bride was released in May, 2019 in various forms and formats: its tactile versions come as a cassette, compact disc, and a gatefold vinyl album with poster insert.

In all versions, art director Nick Harwood (Insdustry Plant) pairs artwork by Brendan Ratzlaff with typography, mostly using Futura. The album title on a circle is set in the Bold Wide style of David Berlow’s Rhode (Font Bureau, 1997).

Jokerman is another font used prominently in marketing, such as the announcement of the Madison Square Garden show and on the official tour T-shirt.
