Praise for THE VANNS
“Another strong track from this froth-worthy band. The VANNS have gotta be one of the best indie rock acts in the country right now.” – Triple J Unearthed, Dave Ruby Howe
“Easy to see why The VANNS have popped off in such a big way in recent years. They know their way around a pop rock winner like they wrote the map.” – Triple J Unearthed, Tommy Faith
“The four piece have grown to become a quintessential name to the Australian rock scene and the many pockets of brilliance it contains, taking a ‘quality AND quantity’ approach to songwriting that ensures that they’re never quite forgotten about without having to compensate in their work’s strength.” – Pilerats
“Packed to the brim with the charm and infectious hooks that we’ve come to know and love from the band, along with evocative and emotional songwriting.” – Music Feeds

As with many artists with Australian tours originally scheduled for the first half of 2020, The VANNS have been working hard in adapting to these strange COVID-19 times and have announced that their national Red Eye Tour has been rescheduled to take place in September.
The band has been powering through the last year off the back of the release of Through The Walls, wasting no time in continuing to spur on the awesome momentum the album’s release with impressive shows, and a well-received Like A Version cover of Bon Iver’s ‘Hey Ma’ to further display their versatility.
The South Coast group has more recently followed up the album’s release with an alternate version of the striking album track, ‘Jules Said’; the music video of which is officially released today! Featuring members of GOSH and Pacific Avenue, the ‘Jules Said’ clip is all about capturing the band’s feel good energy at Wollongong’s Howlin’ Wolf Bar.
“We’ve been long time fans and mutual friends of THE VANNS, so when they came to us to produce their next music video, we were thrilled and of course took it on. We thought nowhere would better fit the vibe and story of the clip than Howlin’ Wolf Bar in Wollongong; Luke (from Howlin’ Wolf) was super hospitable and gave us full reign of the place for the whole day, which really helped us bring our vision to life.” Tom Fletcher & Liam Mahoney, Teel Studios
Written by Jimmy Vann and Cameron Little, this version of ‘Jules Said’ expands upon the original album version, with the band hitting the studio with Grammy nominated, ARIA winning producer Adrian Breakspear (Gang of Youths, Pharrell Williams) to bring it to life.
“Jim and I wrote ‘Jules Said’ in my bedroom in under an hour. It was the first song we finished writing for Through The Walls. We were doing a lot of writing on Logic and trying to come up with ‘cool sounds’ for a while, and then we went out to lunch and were like, ‘When we get back, let’s just try and write something with two guitars and no computer’.” Cameron Little
Along with the band’s film clip release, fans of The VANNS can be getting around the special vinyl edition of Through The Walls, on sale now. A debut album that was met with industry acclaim upon release (including the lucrative Triple J Feature Album spot) , Through The Walls was taken straight into the hearts of fans around the country. What’s more, $5 from every vinyl copy of Through The Walls sold will be donated to Support Act and the Sound Of Silence campaign, both of which are working hard to ensure Australian musicians are supported in this hard time.
“We’re donating $5 from every vinyl sale to Support Act, an organization that does great work by supplying relief and supporting all people who work in the music industry in a time of crisis.” The VANNS

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
