Italy’s Argonauta Records has shared news of the label’s signing of the Florida-based retro-blues, doom, fuzz rock trio SMOKE MOUNTAIN.
If the name SMOKE MOUNTAIN seems familiar, it may be due to the fact that Riff Relevant took a shine to them last year. Back in May 2017, we delved into their 3-song self-titled EP release via a review [LINK], and of course, we were impressed, to say the least. If you missed that release or just need to revisit it perhaps, we are including the Bandcamp stream of it below, just in case.
The band is a true family in every sense of the word as vocalist Sarah Pitt and guitarist Lee Pitt are married, while drummer Brian Pitt is Lee’s brother. They offered the following about these current events saying:
“We are thrilled to have signed with the mighty Argonauta Records, and we look forward to contributing to its impressive catalog with the release of our first full-length album in 2019!”
The trio is currently at work recording their first full-length studio album and we extend our congratulations to them as the next chapter of the band begins.
