ABOUT SMALLPOOLS

Indie-pop band Smallpools was formed in Los Angeles, California in 2013. Mike Kamerman, from Marlboro, New Jersey, and Sean Scanlon, from Verplanck, New York had separately been performing in bands in their respective cities since 2007. After they both relocated to LA to pursue music, they met Joe Intile and Beau Kuther who both hail from Oregon and they started a band.

CAREER

On May 16, 2013, the band released its debut single, "Dreaming," which was recorded with production trio Captain Cuts. The track reached number 23 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart and became the first single from their self-titled debut EP. The band made their live debut at the Brooklyn Bowl on July 13, 2013, and two days later they embarked on a 10-city tour in support of San Cisco. That year, they also performed in support of  Two Door Cinema Club, Walk the Moon, Grouplove, Neon Trees, and Twenty One Pilots. 

In October 2013, the band made their late-night television debut performing "Dreaming" on Jimmy Kimmel Live! And they also had their song "Over & Over" featured in a promotional video for Snapchat, introducing Snapchat Stories.

The band’s debut album, Lovetap!, was released in March 2015.  In support of the album, they performed their second single "Karaoke" live on Late Night With Seth Meyers, and that year they embarked on two tours: Lovetap! Tour and The American Love Tour.

In 2017, the band parted ways with RCA Records and signed to AWAL/Kobalt Music Group, releasing their debut single on the label, "The Science of Letting Go" on August 4, 2017, followed by the "So Social" EP that December.

The band released its second studio album, Life in a Simulation, on October 15, 2021.
