Bio

Born at the end of disco and the middle of rock n roll, when this one began to cry, god said “jesus, she's got lungs.” her music is like this: combine the dramatic presence of freddie mercury, melodic sweetness of buckley, range and power of ann wilson, smoky sarcasm of tom waits, and the ornate imagination of michel gondry and you're getting close. sounds good, we know. we call it vocally-driven-cinemelodic rock for short.

About

“Smith and her band’s entertaining theatrical sass and stage class stage a smoky, sexy cabaret show for the ear. Her jazzy vocals swoop up and down with such grace and emotion that it entices bystanders to pull up a chair and stay for a spell. One minute, the seductress will melt hearts with her gorgeous, unguarded ballads, but the next minute she will threaten to eat her victims in large consuming bites to a rollicking tune.” -The Deli Magazine (Best Bands of NYC 2009)

 

“It’s the kind of tune you’d hear on an episode of Grey’s Anatomy or in the next iPod commercial. It’s sweet (which we love), quirky (which we love) and hooky (which we love).” - Perez Hilton

 

"Between her Jeff Buckley-like vocal leap to her quietest moments, [loveletterbombs] is bubbling with ideas and well executed melodic strength."~Nick Rose (Pulse Weekly)

 

 "If you haven't seen this band live, you're missing the boat kids."~John Pfeiffer (The Aquarian)

 

 "She just has an amazing intense voice."~Jeff Raspe, Music Director, WBJB 90.5 the Night

 

 "Smith's voice is as flawless live as it is on the album."~Joe Hannan (The Signal)

 

 "Take the songwriting strength of Tonya Donnelly (Belly), add the vocal sweetness of Nina Persson (The Cardigans). That's April Smith."~Jared Migden, Music Director, WRSU 88.9 FM

 

 "A voice that made it seem like you lived a lifetime within the 4 and-a-half minute song she just finished."~Gary Wien (award-winning journalist and publisher of Upstage Magazine)

 

 "...a less-jaded Aimme Mann mixed with a more melodic Rainer Maria."~David Parker (Home News Tribune)
