The Vumms are led by songwriting duo Emilio Marriott (rhythm guitar/vox) and Philippe Kogan (lead guitar/vox), along with Tom Middleton (drums). Inspired by acts such as The Velvet Underground and The Kinks, their sound is powered by a blend of genres leaning mainly towards indie pop and garage rock (or "garage pop", if you will), infused with the catchy and melodic songwriting sensibilities of the 1960's.
