 Born in Essex, raised by the Devon seaside and making his bones in the bars and clubs of Liverpool, England's one and only John Smith has been at the pioneering forefront of British Folk Guitar Music for twenty years. He has amassed over 100 million Spotify streams and played his songs all over the world. 

He cut his teeth opening for John Martyn and has since played with Joan Baez, Jackson Browne, Sarah Jarosz, Lisa Hannigan, David Gray, The Milk Carton Kids, Roseanne Cash, Jerry Douglas and Richard Hawley. 

His seventh album 'The Living Kind', produced by Joe Henry, is a soulful and intimate exploration of emotional, Americana-influenced atmospherics. 

John will be releasing a new album later in 2025.
