On this his fifth tour of Australia he’ll be bringing a brand new recording ‘Time Stands Still’ to add to his 9 previous brilliant offerings. His songs are among the most intelligent, thoughtful, literary and uplifting of his genre, and his guitar playing is simply inspiring. SYDNEY MORNING HERALD: His ability to take the emotion at the heart of a song, make it transparent and pass it on to the listener is unmatched. Smither’s rich, deep, emotion-charged voice and his exquisite guitar playing imbues these simple thoughts with a profundity forged out of genuine passion .
NEW YORK TIMES: “Through the decades, Mr. Smither has taken the blues in a direction entirely his own: stoic existential ruminations sung in a pained, weathered moan and set to quietly virtuoso guitar. There was always unpretentious philosophy in the deep blues, and Mr. Smither has followed it toward his own quiet epiphanies.”
