Vampire Weekend - Contra -2009-
(Indie, New Wave, Alternative)

From: New York
Website: http://www.vampireweekend.com/

Describing their sound as "Upper West Side Soweto," New York City's Vampire Weekend mixes preppy, well-read indie rock with joyful, Afro-pop-inspired melodies and rhythms. Ezra Koenig, Chris Baio, Rostam Batmanglij, and Chris Tomson formed the band early in 2006, when they were finishing up their studies at Columbia University. Their first album was catchy, fresh, new and a smashing success. Contra follows those same principles and Vampire Weekend has managed to stay away from the all to often sophomore slump. With a sound somewhere between The Shins and Paul Simon these indie rockers are sure to have another huge hit. If you don't already know who these guys are jump on the bandwagon now.
