For the last year or so, we’ve been steadily saving our own money towards getting a reliable touring van. We’re finally at a point where the band is almost breaking even — entirely thanks to the people who come to shows, buy merch, and support what we do.

The reality though is that between recording costs, touring, marketing, and just keeping the band moving, it’s incredibly hard to set aside the full amount we need for a van without something else stalling. Right now, the lack of reliable transport is the biggest thing limiting how often and how far we can play.

At the moment we’re still working with what we’ve got, but the situation isn’t ideal - we've already ran Jamie's car into the ground, and Joe's car is on it's last legs. Without a van our plans to tour the UK later this year and Europe next year will become increasingly unlikely.

That’s why we’ve set this up.

Anything raised here will go directly towards reducing how much we need to loan from the big boy bank, allowing us to keep putting money into the stuff that matters, like the music and merch.

Covering the full cost outright would mean we don’t have to take on a loan at all, but every pound raised will genuinely help us either way.

As a thank you, everyone who donates — no matter the amount — will have their name permanently added to a plaque inside the van, so you're part of every mile we travel, every rehearsal, and every show.

We’ll also be putting together some little Vangled signed prints for everyone who donates and wants one, as an extra thank you alongside the plaque.

If you can donate, thank you so much.

If you can’t, sharing this helps just as much.

We genuinely wouldn’t be here without you ❤️
