Perfect Sounds Forever presents Vepsestikk at Landmark, with support from Hekt.
Vepsestikk are an uncompromising Bergen quartet folding indie, punk, prog and jazz together, with two trumpets and a good deal of other invention, held up by a resourceful rhythm section. Their 2023 debut EP drew top marks and wide acclaim, and the band has played Bergenfest, Nattjazz and Oslo Jazzfestival, as well as Stockholm, Copenhagen and Aarhus.
The band is Agnes Fernanda Kierulf (bass, trumpet), Hanna Elisabeth Zieritz (guitar, vocals), Linnea Josefine Gjelstad Kierulf (drums, vocals) and Móeiður Loftsdóttir (trumpet). Their debut album Hjertestikk arrives in autumn 2026, circling heartbreak, homesickness, unrequited love, grief and anxiety.
Hekt have their roots in alternative post- and avant-rock, and bring jaw harp, mandolin and synth into the mix. The band fold their members’ differing tastes into a sound that moves between the immediate and the unpredictable, the melodic and the noisy. Hekt are Lea Iselin Mentzoni-Reite (vocals, guitar, synth), Jonatan Fernando Sakaria Landa (guitar, mandolin), Lotte Gaare Nøstdahl (guitar, jaw harp), Molly Nygaard Skarland (bass) and Daniel Alejandro Vivas Medina (drums).
