About Vended

VENDED’s fresh and unique sound heralds in a new era and the arrival of the next generation of brutality to hail from Des Moines, IA. Formed in February of 2018 by Cole Espeland (lead guitar), Griffin Taylor (vocals), Simon Crahan (drums), Jeremiah Pugh (bass) and Connor Groszicki (rhythm guitar), VENDED exhibit a furiously heavy sound built upon the foundations laid by the speed, power and precision of the rhythm section, layered with ferocious guitars, soul crushing solos and gutteral-yet-melodic vocals that portray the hardships and the harsh realities of life.

VENDED had their first mainstream exposure in 2020 when they performed as part of Knotfest.com‘s virtual ‘Pulse Of The Maggots’ festival. Their incredible live performance, filmed at The Electric Theatre, has clocked up over 100,000 views on YouTube and garnered the band a swathe of new fans from around the world, eager to hear more from the five-piece. Today, the wait is over with the official release of their debut single, “Asylum”.

Keep it locked for more coming from VENDED soon and be sure to catch them live at Knotfest Iowa and Knotfest Los Angeles.
