Afrobeat-influenced band Vampire Weekend got together when its members were all still students at Columbia: Ezra Koenig, Chris Tomson, and Rostam Batmanglij graduated in '06, while Chris Baio graduated in ’07. All four members worked full-time jobs until their song "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa" was ranked No. 67 on Rolling Stone's "100 Best Songs of the Year." In 2013 Vampire Weekend released its third album, "Modern Vampires of the City," which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
