Smiling Jack Smith

The Duncan Showroom, 131 Station Street, Duncan BC

Smiling Jack Smith has been around for a while and he has been paying attention.

After 70 years he has gained an interesting perspective on life and a fertile ground for his writing. He can touch your heart and tickle your funny bone in the same song.

his songs unfold as wry commentary on the human condition while his stories deliver lessons for those of all ages.

and he shows no signs of slowing down on a journey that has taken him from New York City to Vancouver to Spain.

Over the years he has been the opening act for B.B. King, John Mayall, Bonnie Raitt, Charlie Musselwhite, Johnny Clyde Copeland, John Hammond Jr, Reverend Gary Davis, Captain Beefheart, Larry Coreyell, and Lou Reed, among others.
