Smoke Over Elsewhere – “Told You So” Remaster 2025 & UK Tour Dates | Southern Rock Revival
Smoke Over Elsewhere is set to reignite the rock scene with the remastered release of their single “Told You So” on August 1, 2025—today! This refreshed take on a previously released track showcases a harder groove, a disco-infused beat driving the chorus, and a thunderous solo that highlights frontman and guitarist Rhys White’s Jack White influence, all wrapped in the band’s signature southern charm. Coinciding with the release, the band kicks off their UK tour with a second show at The Hobbit in Southampton, offering fans a live taste of their evolved sound.
A Remaster with New Life
Originally recorded in 2023 at Metronome Studios in Nottingham under the guidance of engineer Alistair Harris, with Jak Perkins (Evil Scarecrow) assisting on drums, “Told You So” has been revitalized by the band’s in-house producer, Noah. This remaster, like their previous efforts, breathes new life into the track, amplifying its raw energy. Following a complete relaunch in 2025, the newly formed three-piece lineup infuses these songs with a bold new attitude, setting the stage for their UK tour starting today.
