Watch The Vamps official video for their latest single, “Hurricane,” below.
The Vamps just released a brand new song and video called “Hurricane!” The video premiered on the Disney Channel over the weekend, as the song is part of the “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day” soundtrack. You can download it in the US on iTunes or Amazon now! Watch the video below, featuring Bella Thorne. (Man these guys love featuring Disney girls in their music videos…)
UK fans can get the track when the pre-order the “Cecilia” EP on iTunes, out on October 12th!
School may be back in session but The Vamps decided to extend summer just a little bit longer with the release of the official video for their new single “Oh Cecilia (Breaking My Heart)” featuring Vine superstar Shawn Mendes!
In the video, the guys are stuck on a deserted island and trying to get home. It almost reminds us of that movie, Love Wrecked, starring Amanda Bynes, Aaron Samuels, and Luke from “The O.C.” Well, minus the fangirl kidnapping, and with way more Tristan in a leopard toga. Watch the video below!
You can pre-order The Vamps cover of “Oh Cecilia (Breaking My Heart)” on iTunes UK now. You’ll also get The Vamps new song “Hurricane” when you buy the new single. Fans in the US, don’t worry! It’s not as horrible a day as you thought. You can get “Hurricane” on the “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day” soundtrack!
We were lucky to catch The Vamps at their first headlining show ever back at The Grammercy Theatre in NYC in February, and at their MTV Artist to Watch show earlier this summer. So it was amazing to see how far they’ve come in such a short time, and to see them play in an arena setting. (And up next: a stadium!) The Vamps played all of their singles, as well as their fun covers of Jason Derulo’s “Trumpets” and “Cecilia.” We loved seeing all of the support The Vamps had in the arena – nearly everyone was singing and dancing along during their set. Impressive for a band that’s relatively new to the US, but they’ve had great success here so far. Their “Somebody To You” EP was released earlier this month and debuted in the Top 10 on Billboard. Pickup a copy on iTunes now!
The Vamps Setlist
1. “Wild Heart”
2. “Last Night”
3. “Trumpets”
4. “Somebody To You”
5. “Can We Dance?”
6. “Cecilia”
Austin, Austin, Austin. What can we say? He just gets better and better each time we see him. His dance moves are so smooth and flawless, and the choreography is always on point. We love how he interacts with his dancers, another reason why we call him the “one man boyband.” We imagine this is what it would have been like to see a 90s boyband back in the day. And we thank him for that. The concert was a non-stop dance party, for us anyway. (Yes that was us doing the choreography to “Banga Banga,” “Shawty Shawty,” and “What About Love.”)
Of course Austin is more than just 90s-era slow breakdowns and perfect slow leans that would make any *NSYNC fan cry. He can sing, too. And play the guitar, which he showcased in an acoustic set that included covers of George Strait’s “Check Yes Or No” and John Legend’s “All Of Me.” Too add to our boyband nostalgia, Austin put on a pair of ripped jeans that would have made Donnie Wahlberg proud. Our only complaint? We miss those leather tanktops Austin usually breaks out for tour…
There are still a few dates left on the tour, check out all of the dates here! Be sure to pickup a copy of “The Secret” EP so you can sing along during the show! Our personal favorites are “Secret” and “Next To You.”

British band The Vamps (yes band, NOT a boy band) played to a sold out crowd at NYC’s Highline Ballroom on Sunday. The show was part of the MTV Artist to Watch Series, which has recently featured artists such as Austin Mahone and Hunter Hayes. We were thrilled to have the chance to see them again! This wasn’t their first time playing in NYC: Back in February, they played the Gramercy Theatre with AJR. Since then, The Vamps released their debut album “Meet The Vamps,” which has been as high as #2 on the charts in the UK, and have been all over the world in support of their album.
The quartet, Bradley Simpson (lead vocals, guitar), James McVey (lead guitar), Connor Ball (bass) and Tristan Evans (drums) really mesh well together considering they found each other via social media about 3 years ago! Each member has their own unique style and musical taste (James for example is a fan of country stars like Dan + Shay), yet the music The Vamps create is pure, catchy pop rock at its best. The band’s musicianship, harmonies, and talent show that this group is more than just another band creating a frenzy among teenage girls.
Their high energy performance had the crowd dancing from start to finish! The Vamps’ set featured all of their singles, including the latest “Somebody To You,” and the first song the band ever wrote together, “She Was The One.” The crowd was singing along to every word, which is impressive for a band whose album hasn’t even been released in the US yet! They have a great stage presence, interacting with each other and also with the lucky fans in the front row!
The Vamps also performed solid covers of The Killers’ “Mr. Brightside,” Simon and Garfunkel’s “Cecilia,” and a fun, rock version of Jason Derulo’s “Trumpet.” When the crowd started chanting “take it off,” Tristan turned it into a jam session showcasing all of their musical talents, as Brad told the audience “let’s make some music together!” If you haven’t met The Vamps yet, get ready: they are most definitely the Artist to Watch in 2014!
Setlist:
Wild Heart Last Night Somebody To You
She Was The One
Mr. Brightside (cover) Girls on TV
Trumpets (cover) Can We Dance
Cecilia (cover) Watch our video of The Vamps performing “Somebody To You” and check out our Youtube & Tumblr for more photos & video from the show!
If you’re in NYC, you can meet The Vamps and catch an acoustic set at Planet Hollywood tonight! If not, be sure to tune into their livestream at 6PM today…they’ll be making a big announcement you don’t want to miss! The Vamps will be touring the US with Austin Mahone all summer long! Check out the dates here and get a copy of “Wild Heart” on iTunes! Be sure to follow The Vamps & The Secret Fangirls on Twitter for more updates!
