Vast is an American Alternative rock band based in Austin, Texas. The acronym Vast stands for Visual Audio Sensory Theater and is the main creation of singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Jon Crosby. The band is signed to 2blossoms, an independent record company created by Crosby himself. Due to the ever-revolving door of band members and instrumentalists, Crosby is understandably known as the man behind Vast, and directly controls the band's musical direction. Vast's sound is clearly identifiable as ambient electro-rock with considerable industrial and acoustic influences, usually made with Crosby's traditional acoustic guitar, electronic instruments and processing, drum-driven tracks, and heavy bass. On stage, Vast uses elaborate stage monitors and visual effects to compliment the live performances of the tracks. After Elektra Records terminated Vast's contract due to poor sales of their second album, Crosby signed his band to his own 2blossoms. Due to Vast being on a small independent label, the band has been known to play in smaller venues as of late, catering to smaller audiences and lower budgets. Still, the band maintains a considerable fanbase and popularity among underground scenes.   Wikipedia
