With a dozen albums under his belt, Chris Smither qualifies as a veteran of the music
industry. His elegant lyrics are arranged simply, with mostly just his own masterful finger-
picking and foot-tapping to accompany him. His music qualifies as folk, but the blues
influences are undeniable.
His first album, I'm A Stranger Too!, was released in 1970. His songs have been covered by
the likes of Emmylou Harris, Bonnie Raitt and Diana Krall. His recent album, Leave The
Light On, includes songs by Peter Case, Bob Dylan and Mississippi John Hurt, alongside
original, topical material that hearkens back to Smither's '60s folk roots, as well as his
stunning arrangements of traditional songs.
Smither's latest release, Time Stands Still is just the eleventh studio album of a career that
now spans over four decades. Time Stands Still is both pensive and visceral – an album
whose songs alternately ponder life’s mysteries in some moments, and let them lie
undisturbed in others. It features eight new original compositions and a song apiece from
Bob Dylan, Mark Knopfler, and 1920s country-blues songster Frank Hutchison.
