More Info:

Blues folk icon, Chris Smither marked his 50th year of music-making in 2014, with the two-CD retrospective Still on The Levee. Praised as "remarkable" by The Boston Globe and deemed a "stunning career retrospective" (Acoustic Guitar), Signature Sounds will reissue the release this June. Reconnecting with his roots, the New Orleans-raised troubadour recorded Still on the Levee at New Orleans' Music Shed with longtime producer David Goodrich. Their aim was to give a fresh perspective to a selection of songs from his vast career - from "Devil Got Your Man," his first composition, to recent originals. Among those who joined him on the project were famed pianist Allen Toussaint, and members of the band Morphine. No Depression raved, "The effect is extraordinary; strength compounds strength, and leaves the listener feeling touched by grace, or an almost otherworldly wisdom."
