DAVID G SMITH - Song-catcher/troubadour

Serving The song and a life sentence!

Internationally acclaimed Artist-Songwriter David G Smith is an acoustic solo performer with a lyric-intensive style featuring guitars, a resonator, music and a voice that range from dirt-funk to intimate. Think James Taylor meets Townes Van Zandt. His music is a blend of Folk, Americana, Country & Blues. David was recently accepted as a Juried Artist by Noel Paul Stookey (Peter, Paul & Mary) org Music-To-Life. David is a 2008 International Song Competition 1st Place Winner, a Robert Oermann DISCovery award recipient, and two-time ISC Semifinalist. He performs regularly at the Bluebird Cafe/Nashville. David has released 10 albums (with another one on the way) that feature Grammy nom Mary Gauthier and Grammy winner Keb Mo on 4 of them. He has had two nationwide #1 singles on the RMR chart along with several regional #1 charted songs on the Radio Indie Alliance chart. David’s songs have been featured on TNT, Lifetime Network, and Travel Channel and he has a string of indie & major-indie song-cuts. His last 3 albums have been accepted for Grammy consideration. David G Smith - his voice and his songs are authentic.

"Like John Prine and Guy Clark, David G Smith draws inspiration from his life and those  around him. His songs capture the drama and good times, the laughter and loss that  are the components of the modern world." -Tom Wilks, ICON Magazine

"David G Smith is a major find." - Robert K. Oermann, Music Row/Nashville
