“Dream-pop Minnesotan Vansire gave the grooviest performance to the crowd at Songbyrd on Aug. 18. Vansire has been releasing music on Bandcamp since 2015 but have been making music together since high school, and their style has evolved into something truly special. It really is the contrast of Josh Augustin’s voice against the instrumentals that creates a dreamy atmospheric sound. Augustin’s rich and easy-going melodies shift ever so slightly as he lilts over the bouncing bassline and synth.
The band has a kind of friendly feeling as they perform. Whether that can be attributed to the Midwestern stereotype or if it is more based off Vansire’s close-knit group, it is infectious and wonderful. Augustin leans into the microphone between each song, thanking everyone for coming out. After finishing “Set Piece,” he laughs, recalling their Philadelphia show, “When we played in Philly, like three songs later, this guy yelled out ‘Play Set Piece!’ and I was like, we just played that. Where have you been?” “Oh god, that’s going to become some kind of new weird meme now, isn’t it?”” — Anjali DASSARMA, The Retriever, Aug 27, 2019

♪ lyrics ♪
[Josh]
If you're bummed out
Feel free to talk with me
How does lunch sound
I'll ask you about your week
On the come down
Always rehashing scenes
When the sun's down
And half of the world's asleep
I'm half-asleep
[Sophie Meiers]
And I wonder
What you would have done
If I kissed you
I had my chance
I held your hand
And leaned up close to you
Now it just seems like I messed up
I don't know what to do
All I know is I'm nervous that you don't like me too
[Ivy Sole]
I thought that home is where you are until that home is where I left
I found a home inside myself since no home for me was left
I slept with poems in my hands for seven days
Slept alone and wept by twilight so I thrown aside a phone in heaven's name
Cause home can change and it does
Corny names for new love
Joining strange depictions tinted with that rose from my bud
Cause blood is thick but smoke be thick as hell
Eyes all on my mind my shell in shell shock
With lonely mail all cluttered on my desktop
Used to got the best box and cutter slice and dice with sideway stump
Stutter with that t-t-tongue
I scream gently how'd you undo us
For goodness sake you make me undone
These poems underneath my nails
Sweat makes the ink run
Smolder-heavy memory brain showed her a pink love
My poem's in the mail
It was tears that made the ink run
Heavy multi-memory brain shed in a pink tongue
[Josh]
If you're bummed out
Feel free to talk with me
How does lunch sound
I'll ask you about your week
On the come down
Always rehashing scenes
When the sun's down
And half of the world's asleep
I'm half-asleep
