Also, we make sure to focus on audience interaction, and as lame as it sounds, we have a great time on stage and that makes our shows fun to watch. We like to create new setlists depending on the environment of the show. How do you keep your performance fresh and exciting?Дifferent venues and lineups really make a difference when it comes to playing shows. We jumped in the pool twice to try and get the best shot but it ended up that the first picture was the best one so we used it. Of course we had to get a picture for it and it happened to come out so cool that we used it for the E.P cover. As we got back to RyanвЂ™s house after taking the pictures, Anna had the crazy idea of us just jumping into the pool together with all of our clothes on. It happened to be the middle of the summer and probably the hottest day of the year. The day we took that picture we were actually taking band promo shots. How many jumps into the pool did you have to do before getting the cover picture? Mike had us focus on the consistency of our dynamics, as well as, fine tuning harmonies, solos and drum fills. We did way more work rehearsing and cleaning up every single part of our songs. Well, in terms of recording the process was definitely more strenuous. What is the biggest lesson you learned between your first EP and the new one? So shameless plug, if you are looking to record music go see Mike and Jesse! They are both masters of their crafts and they deserve more recognition. Mike and Jesse both helped with preproduction, Mike did all the tracking and all that jazz in the studio and Jesse did the mixing and mastering. We worked with Mike Oettinger and Jesse Cannon on the E.P. Tomfoolery was recorded at Cannon Found Soundation in Union City, New Jersey. Thank you! We are so incredibly happy with how it came out. Can you tell us a little about the production? So yeah, tomfoolery was a natural progression to the sound that we really felt emotionally was ours. At that point we were still fine-tuning our sound. Our self-title EP was basically our learning phase. Was that a conscience decision or a natural progression for the band? Tomfoolery has a heavier sound than the first EP.

Ryan (our drummer) was watching Billy Madison and repeated the line from the movie where the bus driver, Chris Farley says, вЂњThat Veronica Vaughn is one hot piece of ass.вЂќ He then said lets name our band Veronica Vaughn and we decided on shortening it to The Vaughns. We were trying to come up with a band name for a while and it came to a point where we were just joking around and throwing names. How did you guys get together and come up with The Vaughns? The Vaughns answered some questions below. You can pick tomfoolery up at the bandвЂ™s Bandcamp page. Mixed and mastered by Jesse Cannon and tracked by Mike Oettinger, the record sounds fantastic. An amazing track that ties all of what preceded it together. Closer вЂњWilloughbyвЂќ starts ferociously with a great wall of guitar and experiments with tempo changes throughout the song. The guitars really shine here from David Cacciatore. The bass by Tom Losito is up front in the mix and is outstanding. вЂњPlease DonвЂ™t Take OffenseвЂќ slows things down a bit at first and gives Lies a chance to display her vocal range. The excellent track immediately shows a jump in sophistication from their first EP while still, quite frankly, kicking ass. The guitar work is also intriguing with a bluesy feel. Lead singer/guitarist Anna Lies has a confident and captivating voice and the drumming here by Ryan Kenter is powerful.

The opener вЂњWhatвЂ™s CookingвЂќ is a rocking song and gets things going at a quick pace. The new record is a polished, mature piece of excellent indie rock. This band just formed in 2014? Could have fooled me.

The voice, the musicianship and the power here pretty much blew me away. When I first listened to it I had to stop what I was doing and just pay attention. They are clearly a formidable talent on the New Jersey scene.Д¬ase in point is their recently released follow-up EP tomfoolery. They have been making a name for themselves and for good reason. The alt-rock quartet released an awesome self-titled debut EP in 2014В and have been doing a lot of shows all around the area in the past year. I am guilty of that with Springfield band The Vaughns. There are a few bands that I have frequently heard great things about but never really got around to listening to in depth.
