The Smitten don't stay in the one place for very long, one minute they're folked out, the next they're countryfied, then popping in all directions.
With a mix of four very different musicians and even more instruments, they tell melodic stories of life and love, all while with fixated smiles.
With the warm vocal stylings of Bartron, the well crafted guitar twidlings of Matt, the master of melodica and bass, Moose, and finally the driving shuffle and well poised timing of the drummer Dave; The Smitten will leave you smitten with them everytime.

Saw you at Battle of the Bands a few weeks ago. You should have won. Well, after my little bro's band, of course. Keep us updated on future gigs. Cheers.
About getting gigs on Thursdays at Barbukka. You're probably already onto it, just thought I'd pass it on. I get the impression that a fair few people pay attention to Melband even though there's a lot of duckheads that use it...

i met you in barcelona where, whilst i drank peppermint tea to cure a hangover, you strummed a guitar for a morning sing-song. you have a pretty voice. well...i remembered 'the smitten' and am your new supporter!
