Smutdolly is a dynamic alt/rock/pop phoenix birthed in Ridgway, Colorado. The band delivers undeniable rhythmic performance energy that ignites on stage.

Polly Kroger (lead vocals), originally from Empire Colorado and Farmersville Ohio, comes from a musical theater and psychology background. Her style is reminiscent of Janis Joplin, Amy Winehouse, and Karen Lee Orzolek. Polly brings an explosive energy to her expressive vocals.

Derek Jones (guitar, synth, production), comes from a background as a professional sound engineer and music producer in Los Angeles. His decade of working with some of the most influential artists on the planet has given him the skill to employ the cutting textures and shattering beats that punch you in the face one minute and cradle you the next.

Chris Harden (bass, synth, vocals) comes from a diverse funk/soul background building multiple groove-based projects in Philadelphia. His heavy funk influences drip through the percussive rhythmic layers of the music.
