VEMM defied their hometown’s punk and metal tradition with an indie pop-rock sound reminiscent of <a href="spotify:artist:7bu3H8JO7d0UbMoVzbo70s" data-name="The Cure">The Cure</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3yY2gUcIsjMr8hjo51PoJ8" data-name="The Smiths">The Smiths</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:5UqTO8smerMvxHYA5xsXb6" data-name="Sonic Youth">Sonic Youth</a> by channeling teen-hood influences <a href="spotify:artist:6fC2AcsQtd9h4BWELbbire" data-name="Peach Pit">Peach Pit</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:77mJc3M7ZT5oOVM7gNdXim" data-name="Her's">Her's</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:0sPK0NZQ44Z8KhGxCOvEG9" data-name="Plums">Plums</a>.
VEMM took roots in Boise, Idaho in September, 2019 when high schoolers Michael Oliver and Violet Frizzell invited Myles Stauffer and Elias Willerup to perform a house show. In the weeks prior they wrote a set of five original songs, later enlisting the help of <a href="spotify:artist:4ZZMAlTvFMmLrDYImcqm7r" data-name="Jack Ball">Jack Ball</a> to produce them into the <a href="spotify:album:68n2wdnsu4k0zUIPY41X7y" data-name="Flamingo - EP">Flamingo - EP</a>.
Guitarist Cameron Elgart joined to make VEMM a 5-piece act. Together they published <a href="spotify:album:5OBzS4AzQth6xCmFCjmXJZ" data-name="Highlight Reel">Highlight Reel</a>, intending to include it on a larger album before it was cut short by pandemic shutdown. They donated concert proceeds to Inclusive Idaho during nationwide unrest in 2020.
VEMM grappled with a change in identity after the departure of founding member Violet Frizzell in 2021. The group continued to write songs and stretched the two-guitar rock format to its borders, performing with a set of unreleased music until their hiatus in 2023. VEMM released their long-awaited collection <a href="spotify:album:3jKrcz16k2XErkAQh5xVzQ" data-name="Goodie Bag">Goodie Bag</a> the following year.
