Smiling Politely: A Smashing Pumpkins Tribute w/ Shady Lane

If you've been waiting for that perfect blend of nostalgia and novelty, set your sights on Smiling Politely: A Smashing Pumpkins Tribute w/ Shady Lane. It's a sonic journey that's both a throwback homage and a forward-thinking reinvention. Smiling Politely has harnessed the grimy, teenage angst of the Pumpkins, their sound a swirling vortex of moody alt-rock, with a few unexpected twists in the mix. Partnered with Shady Lane, known for their off-kilter blend of gritty garage rock and dreamy synth melodies, you'll be transported back to your Doc Martens-wearing days while still feeling like you're at the vanguard of the underground.
