Bright Lights & Back Alleys

Smokie

Golden-hued 1970s pop-rock defined by raspy lead vocals and pristine harmonies. A record of mid-tempo longing and urban melancholy.

It sounds like a warm hug from a guy who’s had a really long day at the pub.

A comforting, golden-hued melancholy that feels like a familiar memory.
