Jazz vocalist and baritone Jeffery Smith has been lauded as one of those rare, compelling voices of sonic poetry, rich in warmth and depth, resonating with a classic artistry reminiscent of singers like Johnny Hartman, Billy Eckstine and Joe Williams.
Noted for his singular tone and seamless, evocative phrasing, TIME Magazine hailed him as "rich yet light, the flourless chocolate cake of a weight watchers dream". Jeffery Smith is perhaps best known for his albums on Verve, among them his distinctive debut release produced by the legendary Shirley Horn, and his internationally critically acclaimed self-produced records, including most notably 'Down Here Below' and 'A Little Sweeter', which was praised in a full page review in TIME as being "the most vital album of the year".
Jeffery Smith's expansive musical career includes two world tours and four albums with the Claude Bolling Big Band, performances at Jazz at Lincoln Center with Wynton Marsalis and LCJ Orchestra, in tribute to Louis Armstrong, and collaborations with a wide variety of celebrated and diverse artists such as Dianne Reeves, Kenny Barron, Regina Carter, Joe Lovano, Dee Dee Bridgewater and TK Blue. Jeffery is also the founder and director of Tri-Loxodonta Productions, Inc, a not for profit music organization cultivating jazz in upstate New York. He is currently preparing for his highly anticipated new CD, "Change", tentatively scheduled for release at the end of the year.
