After almost 9 years together Smilin Liar has officially disbanded. 

We would like to take time to thank everyone who made this band possible.  These were some of the best years of our lives and we owe it all to you.  Thank you for all your support. 

Music is a huge part of all our lives and we are sure we will back in one way or another. 

We are very proud of our latest CD, Shotgun Melodies.  If you have not picked up a copy you can still get one at CDBaby.com. 

Thank you once again for everything you have given us.  You will always be a part of our hearts.

-Everyone from SMILIN LIAR

Just got this in from Nick J at The Midwest Beatdown.  Be sure to check it out.   -Jonathan

Hey Jon -
 
The first 15 minutes of the Midwest.Beatdown this Friday night starting at 7pm on the stations below are dedicated to one of my favorite bands that has decided to disband.  Smilin Liar.  I've pushed back the 2008 Local Preview 15 minutes to honor the Minneapolis band who has had a huge effect on my life.  Four songs (technically five) will be featured from the past three discs.  Starting with the classic "Something Else" moving into the prelude "Shut Up and Drive" and slamming into "White Lie" and finishing up with the 1-2 blast from the last of their stunning eight year body of work, "Sailing the Ashes of the Music Industry" and finishing up with "You Get What You Came For."  The band will be missed, but will live on forever through the music they've left behind and for that I say THANK YOU to Jon, Justin, Ed, Ryan, Jesse, Pete, Paul, TJ and Bill for the blood, sweat, tears and energy they put into Smilin Liar!

It is Official!

The new Album will be titled "Shotgun Melodies" including the following tracks.

1. Sailing The Ashes Of The Music Industry

2. Pariah

3. You Get What You Came For

4. Harlot

5. Close Your Eyes

Release date to be announced soon! Don't worry....Its coming up fast.

Hey everyone.  Check it out.  -Jonathan

Thats right!! Last week we finilly finished writing for the upcoming record. We are so excited for you to hear what we have. Starting this week we move into pre-production and from there we go in the studio. We don't have a name for the record yet and we don't even have names for all the songs. The only thing I can tell you is its going to be a 5 song EP and we are looking to have it out near end of summer.  Everything about what we did this time around was so different from the past and it feels so right.

Keep stoping back on here and on SmilinLiar.com for more and more on the upcoming release.
