The Smithereens
Sunday June 19, 2011 at 7:00pm
Fairfield Theater Company - Stageone
70 Sanford St
Fairfield, Connecticut 06824 Get Directions
Born and raised in the early MTV era of things, The Smithereens are known for their powerful 60s pop-influenced rock sound and their, most especially, for their live shows. Their influence was so strong, it’s said Kurt Cobain felt it while writing songs for Nevermind. It’s true! These power-pop/alt. rockers keep busy touring schedules and it’s always a treat catching them on stage. Beatles fanatics, Who fans and heavy metal lovers make up this band of friends. Their songs are filled with addictive hooks and classic guitar pop. And with a new album on the way to add to their dozen or so others, StageOne is proud to present the hardest working band from Carteret, NJ.

“Both the band and the audience know about hard work. They know that life will ultimately knock you down, and that rock music, at its best, doesn't make you forget your troubles so much as it makes you realize you're not alone.” - An excerpt from the band’s liner notes on The Smithereens - Live in Concert

“A new album by the Smithereens shows how much interpretive leeway a rock band can have, even when it intends to perform faithful covers.” - The New York Times talking about Meet the Smithereens!, a 2007 track-for-track cover album of Meet the Beatles!
