Smile On - Anthems

I don't know about you, but I watch a lot of TV. And every time that San Diego, tourism commercial comes on it drives me mad. It has a catchy, amateurish, happy-go-lucky soundtrack that took me months to find. But lucky for me, and you, I have finally found the song. With summer just around the corner and spirits running high, this song could not have come at a more perfect moment. Enjoy!

  3. Here is the Mae-Shi's Twitter tweet regarding their involvement with this song --

    It's still not clear who is involved with the Anthems, as they don't list any band members on their MySpace page. Nor is any additional activity (or information) noted there --

    Curiously, both bands are located in Los Angeles (not that it means much) and are (or were) associated in some way with Mophonic (music and sound), which may be a music production collective.

    Perhaps 'The Anthems' is just a front for this one song (for whatever reason). Seeing the song's popularity, maybe someone should rethink that...
