Note
  1. Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They recognize several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

Vampire Weekend is an American indie rock band from New York City. The band has released four studio albums: Vampire Weekend in 2008, Contra in 2010, and Modern Vampires of the City in 2013 under XL Recordings, and Father of the Bride in 2019 under Columbia Records. [1]
