SML is a quintet composed of luminaries from Los Angeles’s thriving jazz, improvised, and indie music scenes: bassist Anna Butterss (Jason Isbell, Phoebe Bridgers, Makaya McCraven, Jeff Parker), synthesist Jeremiah Chiu (Ariel Kalma, Marta Sofia Honer, Icy Demons), saxophonist Josh Johnson (Meshell Ndegeocello, Leon Bridges, Carlos Niño), percussionist Booker Stardrum (Photay, Lisel, Jefre Cantu-Ledesma, Wendy Eisenberg) and guitarist Gregory Uhlmann (Meg Duffy, Perfume Genius, Tasha). Their debut album Small Medium Large was recorded at the band’s first gigs at former Highland Park, Los Angeles mainstay venue ETA in late 2022 and early 2023, post-produced in the following year, and released in Summer 2024 to wide critical acclaim, landing on ‘Best of 2024’ lists by Tone Glow, Passion of the Weiss, Bandcamp Daily, Hearing Things, and others. Following the release of Small Medium Large, the band expanded beyond Los Angeles to perform at various festivals and venues including Rewire (NL), Brdcast (BE), Warm Love Cool Dreams (Chicago), Winter Jazz Fest (NY), Pickathon (OR), and others. SML return with a new album, How You Been, in fall 2025, as well as a string of shows taking them through early 2026. In March 2026, they will be artists in residence at Big Ears Festival in Knoxville, TN, performing three nights in a row at the internationally renowned creative music summit.
