Los Angeles-based quartet the Vacation pour their blood, sweat, and beer into their rock n' roll, "glue[ing] together Detroit scuzz, hook-y retro punk à la the Damned and shout-along glam choruses" (Rolling Stone). Identical twins Ben and Steve Tegel (vocals and guitar, respectively), Eric "Dutch" Suoninen (bass), and Denny Weston, Jr. (drums) first got noticed playing at local dive bar the Kibitz Room, formerly ground zero for fellow L.A. bands Guns 'n Roses and the Wallflowers.
