Oh, Mother Nature. You opened up the heavens 10 minutes before our most awesome show of the year, dumped buckets of water on our fans and friends, and scared away those who might have discovered us. But we were not deterred, and rocked the mostly empty, wet benches like Wembley Stadium.
Smarts rock Lake Harriet in a rainstorm.
Thanks to an intrepid fan for the photo.

All four Smarts are back in May for Sample Night Live! And we’re psyched to be applying our house-bandiness to back Aaron Keith Stewart on a couple tunes (he’s the guy on the right):
We’ve never met him, and we won’t have a chance to rehearse until just before the show, but I’m sure we’ll knock it out of the park for him.

Next Sample Night Live is coming up! We’ll have some new tunes for you, and a guest drummer making things generally interesting and spontaneous all-around. And we might even be wearing suits again, since we think it helps juice CD sales.
In honor of the fact that Mo will not be with us, here is an awesome picture of him:

From the looks of things, you might think The Smarts either disbanded or hired a third-grader cut-rate to design our web site. Neither of those is true.
We are simply in transition, web-wise. And we are eminently contactable by emailing info (at) thesmartsband.com or joining us on Facebook.
