These songs were born on the road - under the stars, around the campfire, in the desert, near the sea, nestled in the forests - all across America. “Land of the gemstones” is a collection of meditations, musings, and memories made during our travels, transformed into music, and recorded in our beloved van, Gypsee bungalow, while parked in some of the most scenic and remote corners of this beautiful country.

"Stay Magical" was recorded in the Catskill Mountains of Upstate New York surrounded by nature and all things fun. The endless inspiration found in this environment can be heard in every aspect of this album, from the peaceful sounds of nature between the tracks, to the lyrical content, and instrumental composition. All four seasons are captured and showcased throughout "Stay Magical"; the birds singing at dawn in the spring, crickets chirping on hot summer nights, wind chimes sparkling in the fall, and the crackling comfort of the fireplace in winter. The writing and recording process spanned the time of three years, as Fort Vine carefully crafted and nurtured this project, searching for and discovering the depth of meaning in each song- a common theme and metaphor woven through the entire listening experience.

Mixed by Grammy-winning engineer Ted Young (The Rolling Stones, Kurt Vile) and mastered by Ed Brooks (Fleet Foxes, Pearl Jam), “Primordial Mirror of Cosmic Reflection” is Fort Vine's first psychedelic anthem, welcoming the age of enlightenment and great awakening during this historically unsettling time.
Imagine a massive marching band of inter-dimensional beings, parading around the earth, ringing in humanity's shift to a higher plane of consciousness. That's what this song makes us think of.

Primordial Mirror Of Cosmic Reflection

Fort Vine is an indie folk-pop band named after a secret tree fort they built in Manhattan. Their feel-good music embraces every audience with open arms as their strong harmonies resonate with meaningful poetry and happy grooves.

Fort Vine has been named one of NYC's best unsigned bands by the New York Observer. Their music has been featured in the film Origins: Transworld Snowboarding and Apple's Solar Eclipse campaign. They successfully crowd-funded the vinyl pressing of their first two records via Feedbands.com and Qrates.com. Recently their music was featured in the trailer of Facebook's new web-series, Five Points.

Fort Vine is currently touring North America in support of their 3rd release, Rise & Shine. They are living full-time in their beloved self-converted sprinter van, Gypsee Bungalow, as they travel around the country.
