The Vacation, a four-piece from Los Angeles, offer a new look at pure old-fashioned rock: They're gritty, noisy, catchy, and mesmerizing. The band, fronted by brothers Ben and Steve Tegel, are also articulate and enthusiastic as they talk and joke about their musical influences, their new record, and their evolution from the underground L.A. scene to a new major-label record deal. On their way to a show at the 7th St. Entry, The Vacation stopped in at The Current studios to play songs and to chat with Mark Wheat.
