Starry Smooth Hound was the short-lived alias of singer/songwriter Vinny Miller. Ivo suggested the name, which refers to a type of houndshark found in the waters between the UK and the Iberian Peninsula. Starry Smooth Hound released two tracks on 4AD compilations: "Dreamt U In a Dream" on the domestic CD Anakin, and "Coco Crush (edit)" on the Caroline/Spain release Dust Distorts. The artist then decided he would prefer to be known as Vinny Miller. Read more on Last.fm.
