The Vacancies

About Me

established in 1999, we played our first show at the Grog Shop in Cleveland Heights Ohio. since then we have been able to share many stages with many great bands like, Adolescents, Circle Jerks, Pennywise, Social Distortion, Street Dogs, The Dwarves, Buzzcocks, Stiff Little Fingers, Joan Jett and The Blackhearts, The Vibrators, Murphys Law, Rise Against, The Casualties, Flogging Molly, Bad Brains, The Hives, Supersuckers, Cramps and more! these bands have inspired and influenced us in alot of ways. Of course, if it weren't for bands like The Clash, The Ramones, The Stooges and The New York Dolls this band may never have started. a huge thanx to them! anyway, we have been on a great indie label- Blackheart Records- since '04 and had the opportunity to work with Joan Jett and Kenny Laguna on the 'A Beat Missing Or A Silence Added' record released in 2005. Do a Google Search for reviews if you'd like. Our latest album with Blackheart stays true to our mission of writing the best songs we can with meaning and sincerity. It is titled 'Tantrum' and is being released late May/early June. Watch for new tours, new videos and whatever else we come up with this year. To the best fans on the planet! Cheers! -V!
