The Smiles & The Frowns were obviously on an acid trip when they decided on a name but it sounds as if their music has been made with a clear head, AMIRIGHT!? Nice. This American duo have been dropping a few 60s throwback tracks over the past few years without gathering a whole lot of steam. This however, could be their turning point as my 389 days of experience breaking bands to the masses finally bears fruit for this American outfit. Sure, some might say I’m not on top of things when The Guardian are beating me to the punch by a solid 9 months but sometimes you’ve got to let a track simmer before you write about it. And that’s what I’ve done. What I haven’t done, is hear this track about 4 days ago and pretend to have known it for months. That’s what I haven’t done, you can know that for sure. Here is a picture of Keith Urban so that you know I’m being honest.
