The Lyrical
Winning the Byron Bay Bluesfest "People's Choice Award" in 2010 and 2011, The Lyrical (Karl Smith and Stanley Longtime) have become THE rising stars of the music scene in Queensland. The Sunshine State has always been Australia's hotbed for new talent in a variety of genres and the acoustic-hip-hop/reggae scene is now no exception to that tradition. Following in the footsteps of Ben Harper, Bob Marley, Michael Franti and Xavier Rudd, The Lyrical reflect the ingenuity and musical aptitude it takes to be great artists. Karl Smith on lead vocals and guitar and the funky island rhythms of percussionist, Stanley Longtime make up the band that is fast becoming the hottest ticket in town.
