Artist History
With his skillful artistry and musical style, Sean Smith has captivated the ears and minds of audiences across America. He has subsequently shared the stage with folk sensations such as Leo Kottke, Jack Williams, Lucy Kaplansky, and folk/pop superstar John Mayer. Sean’s musical career stems from his love of writing and acoustic music. After attending the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, and a tour in the United States Air Force, Smith confronted social issues like growing up in a racist southern environment. In songs like “Pledge Allegiance,” and “The Way of This Place” Smith helps us to explore the human condition, and reach a peaceable resolve through education, effort, and love. His second album, “Live @ Eddie’s Attic”, mixes a rich earthy vocal tone and passionate lyrical style with soulful acoustic accompaniment for a very unique and pleasantly original sound. |

Press Reviews
“Sean Smith's music was born
out of the most venerable of
folk traditions: A life shaded
by adversity begat a cry for
social change, and the result
was pure, guitar-fueled poetry."
Keith W. Norton, Mountain Xpress
Asheville, North Carolina
“Before you know it, you’re completely
soaked in. The very personification
of the term “acoustic poet,” Smith
serves up thought-provoking lyrics
that not only point out some of the
world injustices but also offers
solutions.”
Dan Armonaitis, Metro Beat
Greenville, South Carolina
“If the energy in the room could
be tapped somehow, California
would never have to worry
about another rolling blackout”
Blake Guthrie, Creative Loafing
Atlanta, Georgia
“Sean Smith stands tall with Dylan
as a songwriter.”
Jay Mouton, Southeast Performer
Atlanta, Georgia
