Event information

An exclusive and intimate press show for John Smith with a limited number of tickets on sale for a select few in the intimate confines of The Slaughtered Lamb.

"He possesses a common name but a rare talent" - The Independent

"Spellbinding" - Time Out

"Too good to be true" - Rock and Reel

"A guitar genius...He sounds as though he arrived 60 years ago but looks startlingly young, perched on a chair, quietly confident, charming and instantly engaging." - The Sun

"He sings melodic, epic narratives that are at once haunting and lively...John Smith breaks the old folk paradigm" - Miami Herald

"The playing style he adopts may cause your jaw to hit the floor…he has all the flair for the gathering storm that made Jeff Buckley so attractive...one hesitates to mention Nick Drake but well, one already has done.” – Word Magazine

"An object lesson in how taste and imagination always outweigh mere musical virtuosity...unexpected and daring" - The Sunday Times

"John Smith continually swoons audiences with his own strain of nu-folk. It is only a matter of time before he is enormous." - NME
