Smile was released in February 1989 and managed to pick up several ‘single of the week’ accolades from national newspapers as well as airplay on indie radio shows such as ‘Bommen’ despite little or no marketing. Following the band’s appearance at the Hultsfred Festival in August 1989, The Wannadies signed a recording contract with MNW Records, releasing their debut single, “My Hometown”, in May the following year.
