San Francisco-based alternative pop band 100 Watt Smile was led by singer/violinist Carrie Bradley, a onetime member of Ed's Redeeming Qualities who additionally recorded and toured with the Breeders. Also featuring guitarist Scott Greiner, bassist Scott Houston and drummer Michael Hart, 100 Watt Smile formed in 1994, following a handful of compilation appearances with a self-titled 1997 demo; the full-length And Reason Flew followed later that same year, and was reissued on Thirsty Ear in 1999. ~ Jason Ankeny
