Hotel Books comes from Porterville, CA, and revolves around the poems and poetry of Cam Smith. Intense, cathartic words are laid over ambient musical soundscapes that are peppered with indie rock and post-hardcore influences. Smith uses his high vocal performance as a platform for stories of pain, struggle and the common triumph he has found in faith and love. Smith uses Hotel Books as a vehicle to tell his personal story and collaborates with excellent musicians to fill his words with musical life.
