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.
