Remember those lazy summers when you were 15, when the only thing that mattered was grabbing a slurpee and heading to the Beach with your friends to waste the day away? Well Smith Westerns second album Dye It Blonde encapsulates that teenage essence and puts it through true garage style music. Their under produced sound still sounds very polished, one of their main singles - Weekend - is catchy, polished and definitely a great tune for summer. Smith Westerns will be opening for Yeasayer May 28th at Commodore Ballroom. If you’re coming back from Sasquatch Music Festi- val, then you may have seen them there, too!
