THE SMOKING POPES -
Bio:
Smoking Popes first burst onto the scene in 1991 and released several albums on various local labels. They signed to Capitol Records in 1995 and re-released Born to Quit one of Smoking Popes landmark albums, to an even larger fan base gained by touring with bands like Jawbreaker and Jimmy Eat World. Praise from SPIN, Alternative Press, Rolling Stone and Billboard arrived with the re-release and later that year, Need You Around was also featured in the hit movie Clueless. Musical icon Morrissey raved: Did you ever hear Born to Quit? Its by the Smoking Popes. I thought that album was extraordinary, the most lovable thing Id heard in years.
