The Vacant Lots are a dynamic duo hailing from the northeastern United States, blending elements of psych, garage, synth, and post-punk to create a soundscape distinctly their own. Comprising Jared Artaud and Brian MacFadyen, the band burst onto the indie scene with a raw and minimalist aesthetic that quickly garnered attention. They are known for their propulsive rhythms, drone-like guitar work, and contemplative lyrics, often exploring themes of existentialism and modernity.

Despite their underground roots, The Vacant Lots have managed to cut through the noise, gaining notable recognition with their eclectic and modern approach to music. With the release of compelling tracks like "Interiors" and "Damaged Goods," they continue to solidify their presence in the alternative music world, often complimented with remixes such as "Into The Depths (Cold Cave Deep Speed Remix)" that showcase their ability to merge genres and collaborate with other creative forces. Their most recent releases, including "Amnesia" and "Closure," exemplify their growth in both sound and lyrical depth, hinting at a band that is constantly evolving while maintaining a sharp edge that is unquestionably their own.
