Chris Smither
Honing his synthesis of folk and blues for over 50 years, Chris Smither, truly an American original, returns to Europe to perform music from his vast song catalogue.
A profound songwriter and captivating performer, Smither mesmerizes listeners with his guitar playing – melding the styles of his two major influences, Lightnin’ Hopkins and Mississippi John Hurt into his own signature guitar sound.
His music draws deeply from the blues, American folk music, modern poets and humanist philosophers and continues to earn accolades.
Critics universally agree on Smither’s important contribution to contemporary music from five-star reviews in Mojo magazine to a Top 10 spot on Rolling Stone Senior Editor David Fricke’s best of New Orleans Jazz & Heritage festival performances in 2014.
