The Smith Street Band’s debut album, 2011’s No One Gets Lost Anymore was the sound of a band that had found their feet. Greeted with accolades, Beat Magazine wrote “happily one of the best Aussie albums in recent memory.” Triple J’s Stu Harvey added “The Smith Street band need to be heard” and his Short Fast Loud listeners agreed, voting it in the top 15 best albums of the year. Website Bombshellzine took it even further, voting it THE best album of the year.
The praise, while slightly intimidating, didn’t affect The Smith Street Band and there were no signs of second album syndrome during work on the follow up, Sunshine & Technology (out August 24th 2012)
Like The Smith Street Band’s music, their name is twofold; simultaneously referencing their influences whilst at the same time, the colloquialism of their hometown of Melbourne.
The future is indeed radiant for The Smith Street Band as they take their music to unexplored destinations. As Wil sing’s on Stay Young, “I'm gonna do all of the things I said I'd do when I was a kid. Exist between the margins not between the lines. Getting my hands dirty, not living life romanticized”
