Hidden Herd Presents
VONA VELLA
Signed to Pete Doherty’s Strap Originals label, Vona Vella are a Nottingham-based five-piece formed by songwriting duo Izzy Davis and Dan Cunningham. Blending interweaving vocals, wistful harmonies and timeless indie-pop songcraft, their driving yet dreamy sound has drawn glowing comparisons to Belle and Sebastian, The Strokes and The Coral, as well as Everything But The Girl and The Beautiful South. Since the release of their first single ‘Sun’, the band have been championed by BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 6 Music and Radio X, and have racked up millions of streams on Spotify. They’ve now released two albums – both of which were recorded at The Libertines’ Albion Rooms and produced by Jason Stafford (Jamie T, Sports Team, The Libertines) – and the brand-new album ‘Carnival’ has received widespread acclaim, including an 8/10 review from Clash Magazine. On the road, Vona Vella have toured with The Libertines, Pete Doherty, Tim Burgess and Morcheeba, and performed at the Strap Originals showcase during The Great Escape Festival last May. They recently embarked on their own UK headline tour, with dates throughout March and April.
