We are the Smile Rays!!!

THERAPY - MC ||| DA*SEY - vocals ||| BATSAUCE - beats



A collision of talents, a unified sound.



What do you get when you take Therapy's bullet-proof cadence, a dash of Daisey's jazzy & soulful vocals and pour it all over Batsauce's bangin' beats?



The Smile Rays, y'all!



The Jacksonville, Florida based trio is a collision of talents from two different projects -- Therapy, of the AB's (formerly known as Asamov) and Daisey & Batsauce, of Heavenly Noise -- each having their own appeal to the underground urban music scene. They come together to create a unified sound with a positive and personable vocal experience over beats with a "lo-fi essence of the real." A true-school sound, that will undoubtedly take you back to your roots and leave you smiling into the future.



The Smile Rays are proud to announce their debut domestic LP "Smilin' On You", released on Rawkus/6hole Records. In 2007, the Smile Rays released a full length "Party Place" and an EP exclusively in Japan, as well as a 12" single in Germany.



The Smile Rays have many projects and ventures for 2008 and beyond. As well as promoting and touring in support of their release, Smilin' on You, the individual members of the Smile Rays are recording new solo and group material. Stay tuned.

Reax Magazinevolume 02 issue 06 // David Durney"Now onto The Smile Rays: just fucking amazing. The three performers, Daisey, Therapy and DJ Batsauce, are so very obviously meant for live performance it is just impossible not to lose your mind for these cats. Therapy is sick. Daisey has a set of pipes on her gilded in the most polished of gold. Batsauce was just… I mean innovation was like word of the week with this man, and damn if he didn't set the most perfect backdrop for an emcee and vocalist. With an onstage "sword fight" wielding long-stemmed daisies you really get a complete show there."
