VULTURES EP AVAILABLE ONLINE NOVEMBER 9 RECEIVING UNANIMOUS PRESS PRAISE
London three-piece VAULTS recently premiered their new single “Vultures” on Nylon.com. You can take a listen to the song here.
The track will be included on their forthcoming Vultures EP [Republic Records] out digitally at iTunes and all online partners starting November 9th.
As soon as “Vultures” debuted, it stirred up unanimous press praise and acclaim. Nylon claimed VAULTS have “already earned their place as a band to watch” and that “this is just the beginning for the London-based trio”, while Stereogum described the track as “one of those songs that sounds as big as the sky, a pulsating, dramatic widescreen epic”. My Old Kentucky Blog dubbed it a “precisely crafted pop-tune with full intention to connect to the masses”.
Moreover, other tastemakers have raved about the group. NME called them “a band with the whiff of big things ahead. Better get used to hearing it”, Earmilk extolled them as “Dark pop at its finest”, and Consequence of Sound wrote, “VAULTS seem to have struck gold”.
“Vultures” takes flight on haunting synth reverberations and elegant, eloquent, and entrancing vocals. Its magnificent melody belies its depth and darkness. The EP also features “Poison”, “Mend This Love”, and more, showcasing multiple facets of this alternative pop enigma.
VAULTS first emerged at the end of 2013 with their viral single “Cry No More”. They built an incredible following online in D.I.Y. fashion and scored a deal with Virgin/EMI in the UK. During late 2014, they signed with Republic Records in the United States.

About The Author
Editor-in-Chief/Entertainment Reporter
I knew early on that I wanted to take my place among the stars. One day, my mother saw me reading The Washington Post at a very young age. Who would have known that it would be the building blocks of my journey? Since that day, I dedicated my life to learn all that is learnable. I read everything from encyclopedias, to books, to dictionaries, to magazines. I’m also an avid consumer of television, with my favorite genre being game shows. If you’ve seen me on Who Wants to be a Millionaire or Wheel of Fortune, then you know that this interest has served me well!
My unique style of reporting began back in junior high school, when I started to chronicle the events that shaped my life. Whether it was the annual family vacation or the local science fiction convention, I shot numerous pictures and recorded my thoughts so I could truly appreciate the history. During my senior year at Friendly High, I wrote what was to be my first masterpiece, “Advanced Space Academy – A One Week Journey.” I sent the eleven-page article back to the U.S. Space Camp staff. The article was highly praised for being “one of the best written articles in the history of U.S. Space Camp.” From then on, I knew what I wanted to do for rest of my life — to be a reporter.
Since then, I have trained in Broadcast Journalism at Bowie State University (2008) in Bowie, MD earning a B.S. in Communications. I gained experience in news production and editing through field experiences with Bowie Community Media Corporation, Prince George’s Community Television, and Bowie State University Television. I also wrote scripts for a variety of quiz shows for over five years.
As a lifelong movie buff, I now see close to 100 films every year. I took this love of movies to the next step when I became a co-host for Eclipse Magazine TV in the fall of 2005. While at EMTV, I interviewed celebrities, worked red carpets, and attended a wide variety of movie screenings. In January 2009, I took a leap of faith and started my own entertainment news magazine, The Rogers Revue. Shortly afterward, my life-long journey of studying the silver screen and writing about what I learned finally earned me a place in the Washington Area Film Critics Association.
All of this has led me here, giving you the latest entertainment news for the DMV and the entire nation, and I am truly excited for whatever will come next.
