Phil Smith performs at Deck Acoustics. Proudly brought to you by Footstomp Music and Currumbin RSL.
Phil has just released his 3rd album Year Of The Dog.
He writes and plays American influenced country/rock. Based in Brisbane now, Phil has lived all over Australia & England and picked up the guitar at the age of about 14.
When living in London, he first heard of a fella from Carolina called Ryan Adams.
Phil says “As soon as I heard this new style, alt country, country folk, Americana! Whatever you wanna call it, and being sung by him, the penny finally dropped. It had been a long time since I’d heard anything that moved me the way he did, and it kinda woke me up. I started going backwards from there, and so on and so forth down into Neil Young, back into James Taylor, who I’d forgotten all about. Joni Mitchell. I didn’t get into Dylan until real late, I’m embarrassed to even tell you how old I was before I started to appreciate what Dylan had to offer. Might have cut a few years off if I hadda started listening to HIM a little earlier”.
