Chris Smither

Home » Artists » Chris Smither

Not performing in 2012

Previously Performed in: 2007, 1999

(USA)  Acoustic, Blues, Folk, Singer-Songwriter

http://www.smither.com

With every tap of his foot, Chris Smither draws you into his tight, smart, wry songs delivered in a country blues-tinged southern folk, with a beautiful, fluid, fingerpicking style and a been-there, done-that voice.  An American original, he's had a 4-decade, 12-album career performing his own potent, lyrical songs, and songs selected to mingle with his own, by artists like Mississippi John Hurt, Peter Case, and Bob Dylan.
