Smile Empty Soul
Smile Empty Soul Bio
SMILE EMPTY SOUL is a hard rock band that originated in
Los Angeles, CA in the late 1990’s and has stayed true to
their brand of “no bullshit”, “real as it gets” hard rock to this
day. The band signed a major label record deal in 2003 to
release their self-titled debut album in May of that year. They
realized huge success at alternative radio, rock radio, and the
music video channels that have since fallen by the wayside or
turned into reality show networks.
After 3 very successful singles/videos and a gold record from
the debut release, the band ran into trouble with their record
company (which was in the midst of turmoil at the top levels)
and found themselves working extra hard in the trenches, and
signed to indie labels or no label at all from them on.
This would become SMILE EMPTY SOUL’s destiny, as they
have gone on to release many more albums and EP’s on
various labels, as well as their own company “smile empty
music inc”. The band just released their 9th full length record
“Black Pilled” on October 12th of 2021 completely on their
own.
“Smile” has become known for its constant touring and never
wavering honest sound/lyrics. They’ve never changed for
anybody, and turned down many opportunities to “sell out”
because it’s not who they are.
With a calendar full of tour dates, a new album, and just as
much drive as they had starting out 20 years ago, this band
looks to continue to build on the legacy they’ve created as
one of the hardest working, and most underrated bands in
rock and roll.
