'Big Smoke', the new single from The Smith Street Band, was recorded in the
band's own, newly built studio which operates entirely off grid, hidden in the
wilderness of regional Victoria, and aptly named Bush House Studios.
'Big Smoke', which was premiered on triple j Good Nights this week, will
appear on forthcoming album Don't Waste Your Anger , self produced and
mixed by the band's bass player, Fitzy.
Frontman Wil Wagner says of the track: "Big Smoke is a song about moving to
the bush, falling in love, living somewhere it snows for the first time, only
owning one pair of nice pants, smashing a telecaster on stage when I wasn't
dealing with things very well and being insecure. I spent a lot of last winter
listening to an amazing band from Melbourne called Big Smoke, fronted by the
late Adrian Slattery and this song was inspired by that band, hence the name."
The Smith Street Band will take their new single on the road over the next two
months, starting with a sold out show in Geelong on February 20th. With shows
in regional cities and suburban towns in Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland
and Western Australia.
