Kirk Smith is a singer, songwriter, and playwright from Austin, Texas. He is best known for writing and performing, Despair’s Book of Dreams and the Sometimes Radio. His first album, Suddenly Bright Out was released in 2005 and since then he’s occupied himself playing sandlot baseball, teaching Brazilian jiu-jitsu, remodeling houses, and raising a family. Ithaca is his second full-length album.

With surprising instrumentation, innovative songwriting, quirky melodies, and a healthy sense humor, Bee vs. Moth plays music that defies traditional categories. The band has one foot in the world of jazz and creative improvisation, and the other firmly planted on a distortion pedal. Is Bee vs. Moth serious or silly? Virtuosic or spazzy? Bee vs. Moth is paved with intentions.
