Chris Smithers Website

If you've ever caught one of Chris Smither's live performances, you know it's hard not to come away knocked out by the amount of music that comes out of one man. His guitar playing is remarkably fluid. His songs are gleaming bits of gold performed in a variety of styles.They seem so casual with everyday language drawled over fine blues fingerpicking and the happy tip-tap of his shoes that it's easy to overlook how artful and deep they are. Its clear that Smither is now at the peak of his creative powers.

Back in the old days," muses resilient troubadour Chris Smither, "writing new songs and making new albums were just chores. My priority was, and still is, performing live. I guess I still write the songs and make the records so that I can go out and play - except that now I actually look forward to it."
