3 Mile Smile was formed as an acoustic trio by Knoxville couple Becki Grace and Jeff Livingston in the spring of 2013 with good friend Geezer Simms. They began as a cover band playing songs from the 70’s to today around East Tennessee and the Gulf Coast. In the winter of 2015, Simms left the band.

With Becki on lead vocals and Jeff on guitar, bass, and percussion (in addition to all booking), they went in to the studio to record their first album, with guest musicians sitting in on various instruments. All lyrics were written by Becki. All music was written by Jeff. They eagerly anticipate sharing the release of this self-titled debut EP in the spring of 2015.

While they have not been around a long time, this little band has already had some great local opportunities such as the Tennessee Valley Fair, with upcoming appearances at Rhythm N Blooms Festival, WDVX Blue Plate Special, and Disc Exchange Record Store Day Celebration. They are excited to see what comes next.

With an array of guest musicians that periodically sit in with 3 Mile Smile, this duo’s live performance changes continuously. The band’s unique, soulful take on some of their favorite popular songs combines with original tunes holding roots in the soil of everything from folk to funk. They perform at public venues, as well as private events.
