Ezra Koenig
Ezra Michael Koenig (born April 8, 1984) is an American musician, singer, and songwriter. He is the lead vocalist and guitarist of the indie rock band Vampire Weekend. ==Early life== Koenig was born in New York City, and was the son of Bobby Bass, a psychotherapist, and Robin Koenig, a set dresser on film and TV productions. His parents lived on the Upper West Side of Manhattan before moving to Glen Ridge, New Jersey. His family is Jewish, and came to the U.S. from Europe (including Romania and Hungary). He grew up in Northern New Jersey and attended Glen Ridge High School. Ezra has a younger sister, Emma Koenig, who is the author of the blog and book "FUCK! i'm in my twenties" and a writer on the ABC-TV comedy, ''Manhattan Love Story''. Ezra began writing music around the age of ten, and his first song ever was titled "Bad Birthday Party." Koenig attended Columbia University, where he majored in English literature. After graduating he taught English through Teach for America at Junior High School 258 in Brooklyn, New York. Students recalled Koenig bringing his guitar with him to class despite him trying to hide it and his music career. He was described as a "laid-back" teacher who successfully made bonds with his students. In the fall of 2007, a deal with XL Records Recordings cut short Koenig's teaching career.
