Smile Empty Soul is a Rock band formed while its three members were still in different Santa Clarita, CA, high schools. The band consists of Sean Danielsen (guitar/vocals), Ryan Martin (bass), and Derek Gledhill (drums). After playing numerous hometown gigs, Smile Empty Soul began venturing to the Sunset Strip, and later passed a demo to Todd Parker of the Los Angeles indie ThroBack. That later led to a record deal with Jason Flom's Lava Records imprint, which was expanding in the wake of early signee Kid Rock's white-hot success. The trio hooked up with producer John Lewis Parker, who helped for their self-titled debut album, produced by Lava Records on May 27, 2003. With screeching guitar riffs and Danielson's rage-filled vocals, the album's sound was similar to the alternative sounds of the early '90s.
