ABOUT US
A short year ago, Phil Mannle, , Andrew Walter, and Shaun Benson walked into a rehearsal studio in the valley. The drummer with a bachelor's in percussion performance!! had never met the dancing, shimmying, headbanging bass player, or the thrash metal inspired guitar player who's jazz bassist grandfather had once played “across the tracks” in depression era Chicago. Lead singer, Coby Ryan Mclaughlin, was supposed to make the introductions, but was nowhere to be found. “I got stuck on sunset boulevard,” He recalls. (Can you say -- Cruisin'?!)
When Coby finally arrived at the studio, what happened next took him completely by surprise. “I have no idea where they are, so I just start walking around, opening doors. I stopped at this room where the guys inside were just tearing it up. I hung there for a good minute, just listening. I opened the door, and there they were. Never having met, blowing the doors off --- That was it. I knew this was my band.”
A year later Analog Smith hasn't stopped. The Viper Room, The Derby, House Of Blues Hollywood, Molly Malone's, The Mint. Rehearsing tirelessly, honing they're sound, building a name. Quickly becoming the hottest band on the scene.
“This is a band where you walk away going WHO the fuck are those guys?!”
“The crowd gets off. I mean…gets off. There's no other way to say it. They get off. I mean totally get off. – OFF”
Tony Scott from 95.5 KLOS calls they're live shows “jaw dropping…. Simply awesome.”
“Who took my pants? Guys…..Guys?...Where are my pants”:
