Vaults

Typical of Vaults are expressive melodies, magical atmosphere, mix of electronic and live instruments, and the unmistakable voice of singer Blythe. Their song “Cry No More” scored immediately upon posting on SoundCloud. “One Last Night” brought them, thanks to the film 50 Shades of Gray, tens of millions of views on Spotify and YouTube, and fans around the world.

Guitarist and songwriter Ben Vella with producer Barney Freeman were recommended by a common friend to see the appearance of singer Blythe Pepino. She was then acting in a street theatre and using a special therapeutic singing method to teach people with learning disabilities. Ben and Barney asked her to sing vocals for the song “Vultures” and the great result encouraged the trio to record some more songs. Already called Vaults, they uploaded the song “Cry No More” on Soundcloud, and a hundred thousand people listened to it in a week’s time. The next track, “One Last Night”, was chosen by the producers as the soundtrack of the film 50 Shades of Gray. That caused an exponential increase in fans of the band from all over the world, and the number of views on YouTube and Spotify started to count in tens of millions. Then they played a tour with Paolo Nutini and bands London Grammar and Everything Everything. This year, they plan to release their debut album. Their latest song “Midnight River” was ranked by BuzzFeed in the first place of the March ranking of 46 songs to be heard. They are also to be seen at the beginning of July at our festival.
