We are The Bland: Axel, Anton, Johan, Jacob, and Simon. We started trying our indie music as street buskers back in 2010, and ever since, things have just kept growing. Songwriting, touring, and creating has become our life.

​

As Corona now tricked us of a full year of touring, meeting people, hearing wonderful stories, seeing new places, dancing (and of course also income) - we moved into a ruinous (but livable) castle, and thought about how to use this time we’ve been given in the best way possible.

​

We started dreaming of a place - full of all of these things we’re so desperately missing, and we thought - let's make this the most exciting project we’ve ever done - and create this place in our upcoming album - collaborating with you.

​

We will create a fictive town called 'La Hata Vitoye' - write its history, create characters, family trees, bars, historic events - jump into this world and compose our music to the story. And not only that - we will illustrate this place in painted art and video - to, later on, make this fictive place become real. Yes - we want to build this town in real life - as a festival in 2022, where you can experience the story, touch it, interact with it, and even change it!

​

Thank you all so much for contributing to our Kickstarter campaign. It means a lot! We're now back in the studio and happy to continue working on this. You'll hear from us soon!
