Smokey Brights are back with swaggering and anthemic single

Seattle, USA-based Smokey Brights aren’t exactly new to us, though you have to go back to 2018 for the last time their name appeared on our blog.

At that time, they were in the UK, and headlined The Fulford Arms with Vuromantics, The Receivers and Kitty VR in support. The band have been busy since then, and are now back with a new single.

Peace Sign Pentagram is a timeless swaggering rock track with plenty of oopmh. Traded vocals add plenty of texture to its story that’s full of bittersweet nostalgia. Things get anthemic during a chorus that kicks like a mule and the track is rounded up in explosive style.

The track will feature on the band’s album Dashboard Heat set for release 26 September 2025 on Seattle-based non-profit label Share It Music. The single is out now and you can give it a listen below.
