What is a name but a word or phrase given to a thing to represent it and to provide others with a first impression? Such is Smile and Nod. It’s another name for another Austin rock band. But a name serves this simple purpose only until it is given a new meaning, a new essence a life and world of its own. And now the moment for first impressions is past. No longer is Smile and Nod merely a phrase. It is the gateway to a brilliant new world filled with powerful songs that move with unprecedented passion throughout the land, heart and soul. Each is led with climactic vocals backed with smooth, tasteful drums. The bass is lush and the guitar is sweetly melodic. Such music would touch the emotions of an audience of all ages. They’ll crave more. This is a brilliant new world indeed, and Smile and Nod has introduced it.
The music is melodic/progressive/alternative rock with an epic quality to it. It’s inspired by the hopes and fears, and the triumphs and tragedies of the members of Smile and Nod. Together they strive to create music much larger than them, each contributing an intimate piece of themselves to every song. When Smile and Nod performs its music music that is held so close to its heart a passionate gift is being given to all within earshot.Have you performed in front of an audience?Yes. We play in the Austin area as well as other parts of Texas.
