SMILE

SMILE, hailing from Cologne, Germany, is a Post-Punk band that stands out for its unique approach. The lead vocalist eschews traditional singing in favor of intoning poetic narratives infused with personal insights. The band's sound is a testament to their experimental spirit, refusing to adhere rigidly to post-punk conventions. Notable releases include "Price of Progress" (2023), "Hot Friend" (2025), and "Doohickey" (2023). The band's music is characterized by the narrative, catchy, rough, yet cuddly guitar work, complemented by the subtle, poetic observations of singer Rubee True Fegan.

SMILE played in Datscha at Fusion festival 2024.
