The Vanity Project can’t sit still. Using a loop pedal and far more instruments than it’s wise for two people to play, this duo write apocolyptic disco jams about corrupt politicians and anthemic ballads about the death of idealism. Having drawn sonic comparisons to Blur and Everything Everything, their gigs are a colourful explosion of balloons, party poppers, razor sharp wit and lots of running around. Winners of the 2016 national iSessions contest, they've been written about in the Independent, played on Radio 6 and garnered praise from the likes of Marc Riley and Everything Everything frontman Jonathan Higgs for their originality and their frenzied and theatrical live shows.
'The Vanity Project are overly ambitious and that's the highest compliment I can pay... they have the courage to wear boiler suits and make up and come out with their credibility in tact.' - Marc Riley, Radio 6
'Accomplished, quirky, catchy pop' - Tom Baker, Eat Your Own Ears
'We loved them' - Jonathan Higgs, Everything Everything
