Vansire: An Indie/Dream Pop Duo from Minneapolis

Vansire is a Minneapolis-based music duo made up of Sam Winemiller and Jordan Bleau. They are both 28 years old and have been making music together since 2014. While their sound is difficult to define, they have been described as a mix between chillwave, lo-fi, ambient, and dream pop. With winsomely light vocal harmonies, delicate melodies, and intimate storytelling, Vansire bring an ethereal quality to their dreamy indie-pop.

The Early Years of Vansire

Vansire started out writing and recording music in the summer of 2014. Their debut album “Angles” was released in 2016 to critical acclaim. Since then, they have released two additional albums – “Strange Relations” in 2018 and “Yours Truly” in 2020 – as well as a handful of singles and EPs. Every release has seen them gaining more fans all over the world, thanks to the unique blend of dreamy atmospheres and melancholic melodies they create.

Collaborations with Other Artists

Vansire have also collaborated with several other artists over the years, including Sodapop and Chamber. These collaborations have helped broaden their sound and explore new directions. They have also worked with various producers and mixers on their releases, including Chris Walla (Death Cab for Cutie) and Richard Swift (The Shins).

Live Performances

Vansire have been touring extensively for the past few years, playing shows across the United States as well as internationally in Europe and Japan. They have performed at several notable festivals such as SXSW, Primavera Sound, Pitchfork Music Festival Paris, and Bonnaroo. They are currently working on their fourth album which is expected to be released later this year.
