We call the sound of Crushed Out 'honky tonk surf rock'. We write original songs inspired by early American rock&roll, surf guitar, and country blues, played with an atomic energy, full of love and awe for the history of rock&roll.

Sisters, Katie and Sarah, share vocals in this raw blend of Indie Rock, Folk and Soul.

Smooth Hound Smith is a foot stompin' folk-blues duo comprised of singer/multi-instrumentalist Zack Smith and vocalist/percussionist Caitlin Doyle. They record and perform a varied and unique style of folky, garage-infused rhythm & blues.

Using primal foot percussion, complex, fuzzed-out, finger-picked guitar patterns, warbled harmonicas, distorted vocals, and tasty harmonies, they are able to create something rugged and visceral- a modern interpretation of early blues, soul, and rock 'n' roll music that harkens back to the traditions of hazy front porch folk songs as well as raucous back-alley juke joints.
