Vampire Weekend

In December 2014, Vampire Weekend performed 'Unbelievers' live at 105's Not So Silent Night in Oakland, shortly after releasing their third studio album, 'Modern Vampires of the City,' in 2013. This album marked a significant artistic evolution for the band, showcasing a more mature sound and deeper lyrical themes, earning them a Grammy for Best Alternative Music Album. By the time of this concert, the band was already basking in the glow of critical acclaim and commercial success, not just for their unique mix of Afro-pop influences and indie rock but also for their sophisticated approach to songwriting. Their energetic performance during the holiday-themed concert underscored the band’s ability to captivate audiences, blending upbeat tracks with introspective lyrics. It's moments like these that highlight Vampire Weekend's dynamic range and solidify their place in the modern music landscape.
