They were interviewed on the Today Show, have been featured on “All Things Considered” on NPR, and were nominated for Spin’s 2005 “Band of the Year.” They are 12 and 14 years old, respectively. Smoosh write songs that capture pure enthusiasm and the unadulterated bliss of making music for the joy of it. They work hard, they tour and practice, but they play because they want to. Being in a band is the ultimate extracurricular activity. Says Chloe: “My favorite thing is how when I play out places, it makes me feel all happy.” Smoosh play rock shows, and they also play soccer. Smoosh are two sisters and best friends, totally psyched to be jamming together, and totally psyched to share it with you. download full bio “Free to Stay is nothing short of catchy, indie-pop perfection.” - AOL Music “Smoosh crush any notions that they're just a cute novelty act. Asya rolls through tricky time changes like Tori Amos' plucky little sister.” - Spin “Smoosh's bouncy melodies and fairly fearless percussion transcend juvenilia, leading to jaw dropping moments.” - The Los Angeles Times Wed Apr 30 Buffalo NY @ Big Orbit s Soundlab w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Fri May 02 Toronto ON @ The Opera House w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Sun May 04 Detroit MI @ The Magic Stick w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Mon May 05 Chicago IL @ Metro w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Tue May 06 Minneapolis MN @ Varsity Theater w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Thu May 08 Winnipeg MB @ Garrick Theatre w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Fri May 09 Saskatoon SK @ Louis Pub w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Sat May 10 Calgary AB @ The Warehouse w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Sun May 11 Calgary AB @ The Warehouse w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Mon May 12 Edmonton AB @ Starlite Room w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Wed May 14 Kelowna BC @ Habitat w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Thu May 15 Vancouver BC @ The Plaza Club w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Fri May 16 Vancouver BC @ The Plaza Club w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Sat May 17 Victoria BC @ Sugar Nightclub w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Sun May 18 Seattle WA @ Neumo's w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Mon May 19 Portland OR @ Hawthorne Theatre w/  Tokyo Police Club ---------------------------------- Wed May 21 Los Angeles CA @ The Wiltern w/  The Dresden Dolls ---------------------------------- Thu May 22 San Diego CA @ House of Blues - San Diego w/  The Dresden Dolls ---------------------------------- Fri May 23 Tempe  AZ @ Marquee Theatre w/  The Dresden Dolls ---------------------------------- Sat May 24 Albuquerque NM @ Sunshine Theatre w/  The Dresden Dolls ---------------------------------- Tue May 27 Denver CO @ Ogden Theatre w/  The Dresden Dolls ---------------------------------- Wed May 28 Kansas City MO @ Beaumont Club w/  The Dresden Dolls ---------------------------------- Fri May 30 Houston TX @ Warehouse Live w/  The Dresden Dolls ---------------------------------- Sat May 31 Dallas TX @ Palladium Showroom w/  The Dresden Dolls ---------------------------------- Sun Jun 01 Austin TX @ Stubb's BBQ w/  The Dresden Dolls ----------------------------------
