Watch The Smart Brothers on WSRE’s StudioAmped online at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgCjEsyYvWc.
Modern folk-inspired rock band The Smart Brothers, created by Jay and Lou Smart, are two brothers who have been traveling around the country for the past few years living lives full of the sort of strange adventures you’d expect from a couple of vagabond minstrels. Their popular yet peculiar music is reminiscent of the many places they have traveled over the years. On stage, they possess a raw energy that is contagious. Their music is filled with vocal harmonies inspired by some of the best traditions of American roots music such as the Beach Boys, Credence Clearwater Revival, and Crosby, Stills and Nash. You may well wonder why you have never heard acoustic music as exciting as this before.
