VANDOLIERS

Vandoliers are a uniquely Texas band, distilling the Lone Star State's vast and diverse musical identity into a raucous, breakneck vibe that's all their own. After spending much of the last three years furiously writing and recording music, this Dallas-Fort Worth six-piece is back with The Vandoliers, a new album that proves these rowdy, rollicking country punks are tighter, more cohesive and more sonically compelling than ever.

Forged in the fires of the COVID-19 pandemic, The Vandoliers is the product of a time of immense growth and change for the band. Though most of the record was written in 2019, following the release of their much-acclaimed album Forever, plans changed quickly in March 2020. It was supposed to be a quick turnaround, frontman Joshua Fleming says. After touring with Lucero and the Toadies, we were supposed to go into the studio to knock out an album, and head to Europe for the first time. That didn't happen; their tours were canceled, the band's label folded, and what was to come next was totally up in the air.

Recorded with Grammy-winning producer Eric Delegard at Reeltime Audio in Denton, TX, The Vandoliers is an album interrupted. The band's original two-week recording session ended abruptly in March 2020 as shutdowns began across the globe. The band didn't get back into the studio until November, at which point they realized that, like many of the best-laid plans, their original strategy for the record had to change. We wanted to make an album that had the same power as our live performance a tight, big sound, Fleming says. Through trial and error, label closure, fatherhood, sobriety, relapse, the album grew on its own stylistically. After the hardest two years of my life, we created a collection of songs that push us as musicians, songs that reaffirmed my place as a songwriter and a faith in ourselves as a band I don't think we had before.
