And then there's the voice–equal parts gravel and molasses." – NPR This stark\, elemental sage always has a twinkle in his eye\, a light touch at your elbow as he guides you along. Accompanying himself with masterful finger-picking and amplified foot percussion\, his extraordinary lyrics are packed with well-developed story lines and little punches that land on your heart. After six decades of sharpening his knife as a songwriter\, Smither can at this point open damn near anything with a flick of his wrist. Politics\, consciousness\, renewal\, family\, vulnerability\, surrender . . . Smither has sat with these topics like so many Zen koans for so long that every line is a pearl. His style is utterly confident and unafraid\, filled with humility\, humor\, a knowledge of what inevitably lies ahead\, yet refusing to succumb to darkness… Sample Song Can't make it in person?
