About the Artists:
CHRIS SMITHER
The award-winning Folk singer-songwriter and one of the finest acoustic musicians in the country, sings “about “the big things – life, love, loss – in a penetrating and poetic yet unpretentious way.” (Acoustic Guitar). Smither’s trademark acoustic guitar sound and evocative sonic textures, mesh with spare brilliant songs, delivered in a bone-wise, hard-won voice.
“Smither is an American original – a product of the musical melting pot and one of the absolute best singer-songwriters in the world.” — Associated Press
Smither has toured with B.B. King, Bonnie Raitt, Nanci Griffith, and the original ‘Monsters of Folk’ tour with Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Dave Alvin and Tom Russell. In addition to Raitt, his original songs have been recorded by many artists including Emmylou Harris (“Slow Surprise),” and jazz great Diana Krall (“Love Me Like A Man”), introducing what is now a blues standard to a whole world of jazz fans.
TIM O’BRIEN
Multi-GRAMMY winner and multi-instrumentalist Tim O’Brien has traveled the world and delighted audiences since 1975 with his warm vocals, string wizardry, and heartfelt original songs. His latest recording “He Walked On” maps a pathway through today’s world. In duet with his wife Jan Fabricius on mandolin and vocals, you can expect rootsy acoustic instrumentation and sweet harmony singing, interspersed with O’Brien’s self-deprecating humor
“With more than 30 albums under his belt…[Tim O’Brien has] worked with every legend, and mentored practically every legend in the making for the last two decades…and he’s written a ridiculous number of songs along the way.” – Paste Magazine
