}}Vacationer is an American band based out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is composed of Kenny Vasoli (lead singer/bass), Ryan Zimmaro (drums), Michael Mullin (keyboards/backing vocals), Greg Altman (guitar/backing vocals). Song writing is done primarily by Kenny Vasoli.[5]

History

Vasoli expressed interest to Matt Watts, his manager and friend, about doing an electronic project after being inspired by LCD Soundsystem and other acts at the 2010 Bonnaroo Festival in Manchester, Tennessee. Watts connected Vasoli to the band Body Language which had a studio based in the neighborhood of Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn called Landau Audio Design (LAD) . After one session the song "Great Love" was started and the musical relationship was established. Subsequent instrumental recordings were started in Brooklyn and sent to Vasoli, who would add vocals and bass guitar. The songs started to take on tropical qualities due to Young's collection of Exotica, Polynesian, Hawaiian and Tropicalia Records.[6] Most songs were sketched over email exchanges and then fleshed out at LAD.[7]

Of the first 5 songs recorded "Trip" was decided to be the lead song and was self released in April 2011. Due to its press and publicity, it earned the attention of several labels including Downtown Records, which signed the band.[8]

The band released its first LP in 2012 on Downtown Records called Gone.[9] It reached number 42 on the Top Heatseekers chart in the U.S.[12] The band toured consistently throughout 2012 and early 2013 with Asteroids Galaxy Tour, Bombay Bicycle Club, Tennis, The Naked and Famous, Body Language and Niki and the Dove.

On June 24, 2014 the band released their second studio album, titled Relief. The album charted at number 10 on the Top Heatseekers chart.[10]

On June 22, 2018 Vacationer released their new album "Mindset" from Downtown Records.
