-----------------------
Guitarist and songwriter John Smith joined us recently for a sublime session following the release of his third studio album, the sparsely beautiful Great Lakes.
Having supported Richard Hawley on tour through December 2012, John played a string of headline shows through early 2013, including a sold-out date at London's St Pancras Old Church and London's Purcell Rooms.
Quite aside from the fact that it is an album of astonishing beauty, the arrival of Great Lakes is something of a miraculous happening in itself, given that it followed a 2 year period of writer's block so crippling that Smith had considered abandoning songwriting altogether. But when the cloud lifted, the results were plentiful. Enjoy!
