Smith Curry

"The Grave" and he have appeared on numerous national television shows including "The Tonight Show," "The Late Show with David Letterman," "Rosie O'Donnel," "CMT's Prime Time Country" and "Most Wanted Live," "The Grand Ole Opry," CNN's "Showbiz Today" and "The CMA Awards."

One of the most uniquely talented young sidemen in Nashville, Smith began on electric guitar at age twelve.  His deep love of music led him through several styles on a number of instruments--early on he studied the rock/blues greats, then became absorbed in the roots of rock: the Delta Blues.  A fascination with slide guitar led him to Dobro and steel, and accordingly, bluegrass and country.  Smith formed a progressive bluegrass and country duo Smith & Jason which performed on California festival and concert stages.

By 1994 the sounds and opportunities of Nashville led Smith to load his instruments into his car and drive east.  In just a few months he was busy with numerous sessions, showcases, and road work.  Recently, he has played major-label master sessions for legendary producers like James Stroud, Don Cook, Blake Chancey, Chuck Howard, and Ron Chancey, and can be heard on hit singles like Randy Travis's number 1 "Three Wooden Crosses".  His compositional talents can be heard alongside Jerry Douglas's and Ricky Skaggs's in the score for the HBO movie.
