fig 8. Vampire Weekend

Vampire Weekend grew from one of the first bands to be championed by music bloggers into a chart-topping, Grammy Award-winning act that helped define the sound of alternative music. The band quickly established the foundations of their bright, intricate style with their 2008 debut 'Vampire Weekend’ and over the decade that followed released ‘Contra', 'Modern Vampires of the City' and 'Father of the Bride’ - a trio of albums that all debuted at number one on the Billboard charts; further cementing their reputation as one of the most acclaimed bands operating today. In April 2024 they released their 5th album ‘Only God Was Above Us’ and have since been touring it globally.
