Summer Vacation: Jazz Ensemble in New York

About Summer Vacation

Summer Vacation is a rock/pop group that moves between midwest emo, indie punk, and math rock, with an emerging presence online and a growing New York City live footprint. They appear on bills like the Bowery Palace lineup with My Girlfriends’ Boyfriends, Kitchen Sink, and Lauren Tung, where scene-to-scene pacing matters as much as volume. The band’s writing favors tight structures and quick dynamic shifts over extended solos. In performance, they lean toward clarity and tension rather than spectacle.
