New music from Vineyard Chicks

Hailing from southwest Michigan, Vineyard Chicks are a trio of sisters making an impression with a sound that blends classic rock energy and modern pop appeal. Formed by siblings Kayla, Trie and Bunkie, the band channels a wide spectrum of influences from the swagger of Guns N’ Roses and Heart to the pop output of Adele and Olivia Rodrigo. Together, they’ve forged a sound that brings together soaring harmonies and impactful instrumentation wrapped up with youthful passion and emotionally charged songwriting.

Each member brings their own spark to the group with Kayla on vocals, keyboards and bass, Trie on drums and vocals and Bunkie bringing guitar, melodica and vocals to their sound. It’s this shared vocal strength that defines Vineyard Chicks, with their three-part harmonies rising above guitar riffs, pounding rhythms and flourishes of keyboard work. Over the past year, their presence has grown, building an audience of hundreds of thousands of viewers online through their magnetic performances of both classic rock staples and contemporary pop covers.

Their live energy quickly translated into original work and last year, the sisters began unveiling their own material, debuting with “Crank It Up,” a nostalgic throwback to the golden era of rock ’n’ roll, followed up by “Michigan Sands,” a heartfelt ode to their home state’s beaches and music culture. Both songs, recorded at Jack A Gregory Studios, showcased the band’s versatility, one celebrating the spirit of vintage rock while the other embraced a reflective warmth.

Now, with their latest single titled “Power in the Pain,” Vineyard Chicks are stepping into a new musical sphere via a track that confronts the context of depression and the strength found in pushing through it. Built on a fusion of rock and pop, the song layers heart-wrenching piano melodies against thick guitar riffs and laid back drumming, with the trio’s harmonies gliding through to add to its intimacy.

Recorded once again at Jack A Gregory Studios in Paw Paw, Michigan, their vocal blend gives the song a moving quality that feels equally personal and relatable, capturing the tension between despair and hope. Capturing a vintage classic rock feel cut with modern pop aesthetic, “Power in the Pain” puts the band’s songwriting talent and performance flair on full display.

In just over a year since their debut, Vineyard Chicks have grown from viral performers into a band finding their own voice, finding a balance between the power of their rock origins and the honesty of their songwriting. With “Power in the Pain,” they’ve delivered their most poignant work to date, a song that proves their ability to channel both strength and sensitivity into music that connects on a profound level.
