Known for their unique blend of Britpop and Surf Rock, The Vices describe their music as a "love-child" influenced by Cage The Elephant and The Strokes, charged with a live energy that resembles one of the early Chili Peppers. Their contagious sense of child-like fun and unwavering drive have earned them a huge following, leading to sold-out club tours and sought-after support slots with Nothing But Thieves on Europe's grand stages and the center stage at The New Colossus Festival in New York and SXSW in Austin, Texas.

ABOUT The Vices

The Vices, a four-piece indie pop-rock band from Groningen, NL, kicked off their career back in 2019, playing shows at ESNS and supporting other bands before embarking on a UK tour. After a successful debut album ''Looking For Faces'', their touring and playing at Summer festivals were halted due to a nasty COVID pandemic. Still, it did not throw the band off their track, and The Vices became a house band on the TV Show M (NPO1), built a studio on a boat on which they performed their entire debut album, made regular appearances at 3FM and KINK, put on a sold-out Vice Fest before returning to the studio!

The band is represented by 3S MUSIC and Mattan Records and is currently working with Charlie Andrew, a renowned producer known for his work with Alt-J, among others. This partnership marks a significant move for The Vices, signaling a new chapter in their musical journey as they delve into innovative and original sounds. Their dedication to pushing artistic boundaries and providing memorable live performances further cements their status in the music industry.
