NASHVILLE’S HOTTEST NEW ALTERNATIVE ELECTRONIC ROCK/POP ARTIST WILL MAKE YOU ‘SMILE’ WITH NEW SUMMER SINGLE
NASHVILLE – Today, Friday, June 2, alternative electronic rock and pop artist Grimzlee released his newest single of 2023, Smile. Written and produced by Grimzlee, this song will have you feeling wistful about the one that got away.

As a South Carolinian now based in Nashville, Grimzlee was born to break the musical box of Nashville’s country reputation. He draws influence from Foo Fighters, Asking Alexandria, Bring Me The Horizon, Slipnot, Deftones, Lil Peep, POORSTACY and more. Smile is the newest single off his upcoming album, which is set for release in early fall. His previous single off the project, Miss Reaper, achieved 1 million Spotify streams.
When asked about Grimzlee, Tim Hutchins, lead guitarist for metal band Sydewynder, says, “Grimzlee combines ethereal textures with catchy melodies and honest lyrics about persevering through mental struggles. His personal blend of pop, rock and alternative elements reveals how precisely dialed in his vision is. His artistry, marketing and steadfast work ethic are bound to catapult him above the surface of the digital sea.”
Preview Smile as Grimzlee remembers the longing felt for a lost lover:
“I hope when you go to bed
That feeling is inside your head
Goes away and takes you
In your memories
Are you done with me
Or do I make you smile
Do you think of me
When you’re not okay
Do you think of days gone bye
Hope you smile today
Smile today
Smile today
In your memories
Are you done with me
Or do I make you smile”
