Vital Humor is the recording project of Nashville-based singer-songwriter and guitarist Joey Chmura. Drawing from classic pop and contemporary indie influences, the project’s sound has been described as “Beatles-esque dream pop,” combining lush harmonies, melodic songwriting, and textured production.

Originally from Atlanta, Chmura developed his craft working with other artists as a guitarist, songwriter, and producer before launching Vital Humor as a dedicated outlet for his own songs. What began as a collaborative recording project has grown into a fully realized act.

Since its formation in 2021, Vital Humor has performed at venues and festivals throughout the Southeast, steadily building a sound that continues to expand with each release.
