Bio / Background
“Play It” is the rare and long out-of-print debut CD of The Smarties, a band based in Springfield, MO, active from 1991 - 1997. The band consisted of vocalist and percussionist Sheri Hurst, guitarist Craig Bostick, Matt Netzer on bass and Kristy McInnis on drums. (The whole band sang harmony, which was one of the things that contributed to their unique sound.) They drew their influences from a wide variety of musicians and styles including surf guitar instrumentals, classic country, 60s girl groups, and punk rock just to name a few. Although the band has its own distintive sound, you can certainly hear traces of Lone Justice and Maria McKee along with the B-52’s and The Go-Go’s.
Of the songs on the CD, seven were written by Craig and sung by Sheri including “He Fixes Things”, “Summer’s Over” and their biggest hit “I Wish I Could Say”.
