Smother Magazine Band Spotlight: The Emergency
The Emergency is to pop and indie rock what the Pope is to Catholicism. Despite featuring only three members, The Emergency has a sound that could dominate any sold out arena. Complementing their infectious catchy hooks are vocals that would make any grown man cry.
