Vampire Weekend and label XL records have settled a lawsuit with the woman who appeared on the cover of their 2010 album, 'Contra'.

Ann Kiersten Kennis, the woman who appears on the cover, claimed she did not provide consent to appear on the record sleeve and that photographer Tod Brody forged her model release of the polaroid shot when it was taken in the eighties.

Kennis has won an undisclosed settlement and the case was dismissed by a federal court in Los Angeles.

The band and XL are now  in the process of suing Brody for misrepresenting his rights to the photo, which he licensed to them for $5,000.

In June, it was reported that Brody's attorneys primarily due to his failure to pay his legal bills. The photographer is now representing himself in the case.
