Smith Westerns have returned with their new single “Varsity.” It will be on their new album, Soft Will, out June 11th on Mom+Pop.
On “Varsity” the band return in full fashion hitting those glam-rock chords oh so well. This is one of the bigger sounding songs that we’ve heard from the Chicago-band to date, as the production is top notch and they’re reaching bigger with it’s chorus. I like it quite a bit.
The band started work on Soft Will during spring/summer 2012, teaming up with producer Chris Coady. Recording started at Sonic Ranch in El Paso Texas in August. They finished the album with multiple sessions in New York to finally complete the album last December.
“Varsity” will be released as a limited 7” on May 14th via Mom+Pop. It will feature B-side “Case & Point.”
