Al Smith
Al Smith performs playing his special MIDI guitar (channeled through a guitar synthesizer) and singing while entertaining audiences in clubs to outdoor stadiums. He is the founder of the recording band Blacksmith, who now often performs as a solo artist using his sequenced backing tracks to accompany him. You can honestly say he sounds like a FULL LIVE BAND…So much so that people from other rooms “crash” his performances convinced they are listening to a full band. As a seasoned entertainer he knows how to connect with his audiences (which no doubt separates him from other performers). Whether it be ballads, rock n’ roll or the soulful sounds of Motown—he really sounds like the artists he’s giving tribute to. He is booked in venues throughout as a main attraction.
Al Smith is a historic internet pioneer, reaching over 250 million subscribers worldwide with his music and message. He is a known technology advocate as a pro-active member of the Distributing Computing Industry Association
