Alex Smith brings Adirondack Mountain Sounds to Tinmouth’s Old Firehouse April 21st 7:30PM
Alex Smith grew up in Long Lake, in the heart of New York's Adirondack Park, and his music strives first and foremost to echo the people of that area. He builds songs from a blend of traditional folk harmony and strikingly modern lyrics, confronting today's most pressing issues with grace while paying homage to the masters who came before him. He’s been called “a natural storyteller with a rich voice who is creating poignant songs rooted in the heritage of his Adirondack home.” And “when Alex sings traditional folk songs from his region, he energizes them with his own voice, arrangements and charisma.” Alex is new to the Firehouse, but the Crew has listened to his recordings and is delighted to be able to present him.
Smith's mother is a historian and his father is a writer and boat builder. Their influence is evident in his attention to detail: each of Smith's characters, though fictional, lives and breathes a balance between beauty and imperfection. His stories draw on the triumphs and hardships of friends, relatives, and neighbors near and far.
Alex Smith is the second concert in the Tinmouth Old Firehouse Concert Series, at 7:30 on April 21.
