Which indie rock band's 2009 album 'Veckatimest' features the song 'Two Weeks'?

The story behind the answer

The indie rock band whose 2009 album “Veckatimest” features “Two Weeks” is Grizzly Bear.

“Two Weeks” was the first single from Grizzly Bear’s third studio album, Veckatimest, released by Warp Records on May 26, 2009. The album was produced by bassist Chris Taylor and recorded at Allaire Studios in upstate New York.

The song is especially recognizable for its layered harmonies, organ-like keyboard texture, and polished chamber-pop sound. Victoria Legrand of Beach House provides backing vocals, which may cause a common mix-up: Beach House is connected to the recording, but it is not the band performing the song.

“Two Weeks” was previewed live before the album appeared, including a performance on The Late Show with David Letterman in July 2008. Its music video, directed by Patrick Daughters, became equally memorable for its surreal image of the band members’ heads glowing and catching fire.
