About blue smiley
Blue Smiley was a Philadelphia-based indie rock band that served as the musical outlet for singer, songwriter, and guitarist Brian Nowell. A slippery fusion of shoegaze and melodic noise pop, Nowell's songs were dynamic, offbeat, and engaging. The group released two albums -- 2015's ok and 2017's return, both on small local indies -- before Nowell's tragic death in October 2017. In 2023, Boston label Topshelf reissued both of Blue Smiley's albums along with several previously unreleased songs.
