Already in possession of one of the year’s best-reviewed albums in the form of its debut full-length, A Light for Attracting Attention, the Smile will close out 2022 with the live release The Smile at Montreux Jazz Festival, July 2022. The digital album will arrive Wednesday (Dec. 14), with the accompanying performance video premiering tomorrow at 3 p.m. ET on the Smile’s YouTube channel.
