VAN HØF (formerly VanLadyLove) is an American Indie Rock / Pop / Alternative band from Provo, Utah. The Band was formed in 2012. Their first live show was opening for the band Parachute, after which they quickly gained a local following in Utah, which has begun to spread throughout the United States and Europe. VanLadyLove has opened for other prominent acts like Train, Portugal the Man, The Avett Brothers, Cold War Kids, Blink 182, Zella Day, Coasts, Tyrone Wells, Cody Simpson, Tyler Ward, and Dave Barnes.

In 2014 The Band won the “#1 Artist on the Verge” award, a national honor given by a team of top A&R scouts, talent buyers, booking agents, media taste-makers and other industry experts at the New Music Seminar's in New York City.[1]

The Band also won "Best Album" and "Best Pop" at the Utah Music Awards in 2014 with the EP "Love Matter."

In 2016 The Band released their follow up EP "Alive."

VAN HØF takes influence from bands such as Young the Giant, Cage the Elephant, Phantogram, The Black Keys, Coldplay, Radiohead, Imagine Dragon, Everything Everything, The Neighbourhood, and The Killers.

Their first album Love Matter was released February 17, 2014[2]. The album received recognition very quickly after receiving key placements on national television. This, along with a viral music video for the song Neverland, triggered the band to chart on iTunes.

Major industry professionals noticed the buzz and invited VanLadyLove to participate in the New Music Seminar in New York City. They went on to become the New Music Seminar’s, 2014 Artist On the Verge. VanLadyLove was chosen for this award by a team of leading A&R scouts, talent buyers, booking agents, media taste-makers and other industry experts. As the year came to a close, the album was selected for VH1’s “Staff Picks of 2014” and received 2014 Utah Music Awards Best Pop Band and Best Album of the year[3].

Currently[when?] VAN HØF is recording their new album at Green Day’s Jingletown Studios in Oakland.
