About Let It Buffer

Kleenex Girl Wonder is a 20-year-old New York-based pop/rock band who specialize in earworm-grade melodies and laureate-class multisyllabic-rhyme-bejewelled lyrics. In the spring of 1993, American Nature Comics founder and CEO Kris Voss suggested that Graham Smith start a new band called Kleenex Girl Wonder, and just get his sh*t together in general, musically. Two and a half years later, Smith, Rafeeq Hasan, and the late Adam Blake were rocking the stage of the Chicago Metro with Blast Off Country Style, Tuscadero, and probably even another Teen Beat band.

In 2003, Graham broke up Kleenex Girl Wonder for no reason. In 2004, he released Final Battle (under his given name) and moved to New York. He recruited former Wes Anderson protege Thayer McClanahan to play guitar (their famous schism "really taught me how to shred," quips McClanahan), Ryan (no sexual relation) Smith with his bass wobble synth, and total pro Mike Fadem (Jealous Girlfriends, Amy Miles, that guy from Shudder to Think) for the drums. As Graham Smith & KGW, this line-up recorded November Brain and Yes Boss, which was named the third best album of the first decade of the 21st century by one writer at Time Out New York. The pure KGW brand was revivified on 2009 s Mrs. Equitone, a
