It's the return of the Road Trip! This week, as the band releases new music, Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig takes us on an imaginary journey to a destination of his choice and picks the playlist for the ride.

Vampire Weekend's new album Only God Was Above Us will be out in April. Years in the making, it is their first new music in since 2019, and was recorded all over the world - including New York, LA, London and Tokyo. Formed in 2006 in New York City, the band have released four albums to date, including Modern Vampires in the City (2013) and Father of the Bride (2019).

Plus, Jo handpicks her favourite music from all genres of the musical spectrum, and plays another track from this week's Vinyl Revival.
