Smoosh started as an American indie pop duo, consisting of two sisters, Asya and Chloe. Recently their younger sister Maia joined the band for their Summer 2007 tour. At the time of their first album in 2004, Asya was 12 years old and Chloe was 10. All of their songs are originals with both music and lyrics written by the girls themselves. Maia, then not in the band, provided the cover artwork for their two first albums.

They live in Seattle, Washington with their father Mike, their mother Maria, and their younger sisters Maia and Scout.

They are, to some extent, protégées of Chloe's drum teacher, Jason McGerr, now the drummer of Death Cab for Cutie. (less info)
