Vanna

Vanna is an American post-hardcore band from Boston, MA, formed in December 2004 by both guitarists Evan Pharmakis and Nick Lambert.

In April 2017, the band confirmed that they were disbanding after announcing their tour dates for the summer. They played their last show at the Worcester Palladium on December 15, 2017.

On October 1, 2020, Nicholas Lambert announced via Reddit and Instagram that five of the original members of Vanna, Nicholas, Brandon, Shawn, Evan, and Chris had come back together to form a new band under the name INSPIRIT. When asked about the direction of the band Lambert stated, "we wanted to do something that fit into that sound we were doing back in 2006, but just done smarter and with better production."

On February 28, 2025, the members of Inspirit announced they would be performing as Vanna again, stating "...INSPIRIT was a fun throwback chapter, it was always part of the same story. Now, we’re continuing that story under the name it started with: Vanna.
