"It's like Girltalk's hot cousin"

Super Mash Bros. is a musical experiment based out of Los Angeles, California made up of three friends: Dick Fink, Nicolas Fenmore, and Ethan Dawes who have been quickly basing themselves in the club scene across the country.


The trio of DJ’s embrace all styles of music, mixing modern day rap hits with ‘80s and ‘90s pop and rock fluently and effectively. They often end up improving on the original versions.
The band emerged onto the scene in the summer of 2008 with their first album release, F*ck B*tches. Get Euros, and quickly followed that up the following summer with the album All About the Scrillions.


Super Mash Bros. makes old and overplayed songs sound fresh, new, and vibrant in ways one couldn’t imagine by combining Jay-Z’s “99 Problems” with Vanessa Carlton’s “1000 Miles,” Nelly’s “Country Grammar” with Blink 182’s “Always,” and even combining Solja Boy’s “Crank That” with DJ Darude’s “Sandstorm.”


Popular songs include, “This is Definitely Not The 405,” “Bruce Willis Was Dead The Whole Time,” “D.G.A.F.L.Y.F.,” and “Living On A Float.”


The band describes themselves on their website as, “Super Mash Bros. is a musical project taking all of your favorite hits from the past few decades and combining them with today’s chart topping rap hits in ways scientifically proven to make you shake your [booty]. We’re like Girltalk’s hot cousin.”


Similar artists include “Girltalk,” “E-603,” and “Easter Egg.”


The band is currently on tour playing at several colleges and universities across the country and has begun opening up for larger artists, most recently opening for Pharrell Williams’ band N.E.R.D.


The band has intentions to release a third album in the summer of 2010, though they have not released details as to what will be on the upcoming album.


Super Mash Bros. allow fans to download both of their albums in their entirety for free by visiting www.myspace.com/sprmshbros.
