The Vanns, a vibrant Australian indie rock band, have garnered a notable following with their compelling blend of catchy riffs and earnest lyrics. Formed in the coastal town of Kiama, New South Wales, the group consists of Jimmy Vann (vocals/guitar), Lachlan Jones (drums), and Tom Switlek (bass). Their musical journey began to gain serious momentum after releasing several EPs, which blended the infectious energy of garage rock with the melodic sensibilities of classic Aussie acts, paving their way to national recognition.

Over recent years, The Vanns have continued to evolve their sound, as heard in their most recent releases including the tracks "Last Of Your Kind" and "Haunted." Their appearance on triple j's Live At The Wireless from Splendour in the Grass, Byron Bay in 2023, showcases the raw live energy that has strengthened their reputation as an electrifying live act. Accomplishments like their inventive cover of "Hey, Ma" for triple j's Like A Version segment, and the acoustic renditions of their singles "Mother" and "Deranged," demonstrate the band's versatility and ability to connect with audiences in varied settings. With each release, The Vanns continue to solidify their status in the Australian music scene as a band with a potent blend of authenticity, instrumental skill, and storytelling.
