Chris Smither Announces Extensive Australian Tour

One of the great finger style blues guitarists and songwriters currently on the circuit, Chris Smither is one of those artists that you probably have had a connection with in the past without knowing it. The artist has been playing music for decades and has written some seriously great tunes; Love Me Like A Man, made famous by fellow Bluesfester Bonnie Raitt one of the more popular.

Smither released his first record in 1970, but thanks largely to a bit of a struggle with the bottle it wasn't until 1997 that he started releasing records with any regulatory. He returns to Australia in just a couple of months to treat us to a whole swag of shows, a couple of festival daes which were announced last year and some club shows that have just been announced today.
