About

ALICE SMITH IN CONCERT:

When it comes to the legendary voices of soul and R&B, singer-songwriter [do we want a slash or hyphen? Doesn’t matter to me, just want to make sure we have a consistent rule] Alice Smith is right up there with the best of them. Ms. Smith cuts a commanding figure on stage, and her formidable presence is only intensified by the broad, powerful swath [right word? Are you trying to emphasize the range? I guess that’s covered with broad… How about “by her powerful, far-ranging voice” or something?] of her voice. Whether she's covering Cee Lo Green's "Fool for You" or mesmerizing with originals like "Baby," fans can expect big, beautiful things from Smith on her 2014 tour.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Raised splitting time between Washington, D.C. and a Georgia farm, Smith grew up immersed in gospel, soul, and R&B. An active singer while studying at Fordham University in New York, she made her album debut in 2006 with For Lovers, Dreamers, & Me, a nod to the line sung by Kermit in the Muppets' beloved 1979 song "Rainbow Connection." The album was a hit with critics, landing on Billboard's Heatseekers Albums chart and sparking extensive touring. After taking some time off to raise her daughter and relocate to Los Angeles, Smith made a triumphant return with 2013's She, a genre-spanning collection of songs that will feature heavily on her highly anticipated 2014 tour.

FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:

"Goosebumps. Chills. Soul. That was my experience with Ms. Smith. She was just amazing! I cannot WAIT to see her again!"

"She is absolutely the best live I have seen in over 10 years. She is a bit of Tina Turner, Mick Jagger, etc. An amazing performer who owns the stage and gives a wicked performance..."

"Amazing performance. I got way more than my money's worth. This woman is the ultimate performer. Engaging with a voice that engulfs your spirit and takes over you physically."

  • Alice smith has a new fan

    by JonelleA on 12/7/13Bowery Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    The Alice Smith concert on December 4, 2013 was phenomenal. Her opening act Rebecca Jordan was so sweet and honest and sang beautifully. Alice Smith afterword completely blew me away. She has an amazing voice that is controlled by God. I never knew people still existed in this world that can sing the way she does. After leaving the Bowery ballroom I said to myself that Alice Smith has a new fan. I initially got the tickets for my girlfriend but the next set of tickets I buy will be for me and her. If Alice Smith ever adopts the performance idea with backup dancers I am auditioning at every location. I would love to use my God-given talent for her God-given talent.

  • Alice Smith...WOW

    by MasQP on 12/7/13Bowery Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    I was introduced to a Alice Smith when I watched Black Girls Rock. I heard one song and was hooked. Listening to Alice Smith in concert was AMAZING!! Her presence on stage blew me away!! I cannot wait to see her again.

  • Alice Smith can SANG!!

    by SpedTchrCHS on 12/7/13Bowery Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    That was my first Alice Smith show; I had seen her with someone else and decided I needed to see her whole show. She looked great, and sounded even better! I like the way she worked the stage and brought her songs to life. You can tell that they are more than just songs to her- she feels that music!

  • Alice Smith was unforgettable , fabulous !!!!

    The performance by Alice was great. The venue is too crowded and the service for the food was terrible.

  • Amazing performer with incredible vocals

    by Flfnyc on 12/2/13Howard Theatre - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    Engaging artist from start to finish with an incredible band backing!

    I first saw Alice on "Black Girl's Rock" and found out she was going to be at the Howard Theater. I went. I saw. I'm hooked. That is all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Alice is AMAZING

    by hearteurika on 12/2/13Howard Theatre - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    I have been an Alice Smith fan for a while now. This is the second live show I have seen and she rocked the house down! The Howard Theater is such a great venue, and Alice put on a great show. She did songs from both She and For Lovers, Dreamers and Me a cover and a couple unrecorded songs. Even in the intimate setting I had to get up and dance to my favorite song Love Endeavor!

  • Alice Just Keeps Getting Better

    by KJStJ on 12/2/13Howard Theatre - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    It's amazing how, after 7 years of seeing her in concert, Alice continues to amaze me. If you haven't had a chance to see her and are thinking about purchasing tickets -- do it!. You won't be disappointed

  • Alice Smith Concert

    by NewHowardPatriot13 on 12/2/13Howard Theatre - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    What a great treat! Her voice range is a gift and her personality mirrors her sweet spirit!

  • Alice Smith is amazing

    by leefree26 on 12/2/13Howard Theatre - WashingtonRating: 4 out of 5

    I love her voice!!! The seating at this venue was...interesting and limited. HOWEVER I was able to see her over everyone and I got the last seat for being a party of one!

  • by Anonymous on 12/2/13Howard Theatre - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    This was honestly, hands down one of the best shows I've been to. She has the most amazing voice and put on an awesome show. I loved the band, too -made up of only 3 others.

  • Alice is the TRUTH !!

    by kalalela on 12/2/13Howard Theatre - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    Such a great performance. Didn't doubt that she wouldn't bring it. Third time seeing her and never disappointed!

  • by Anonymous on 4/16/13Bowery Ballroom - New YorkRating: 4 out of 5

    I see Alice whenever she's in town. I expected the show to start an hour late. But what I wasn't expecting was Rebecca Jordan who wasn't on the event line up to open for her. I was disappointed because, well... I didn't come to see her. Even after her set it took Alice another 40 minutes before she got on stage. So in total it was 2 hours and 19 minutes from when the event started to when Alice came on. But OH MAN. She is worth the wait. I was a little peeved that she didn't acknowledge or apologize for keeping us waiting, in the standing room only venue, for so long. But what can I say... she puts on a good show. She did a good balance of the old and new. And as expected she tore the house down.

  • Great Voice!

    by SavvySavin on 4/16/13Brighton Music Hall - BostonRating: 5 out of 5

    Omg, her voice is incredible.. Sounds even better live, that throaty, soulful undertone to her voice is just so cool. Great band too!

  • To Be Experienced Live!!!

    by Louriest on 4/12/13Bowery Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Alice Smith is the truth!!! Her backing band is the truth!!! Everyone was feeling it. It was almost a religious experience that all enjoyed. I was honored to be there. Bowery Ballroom is always a chill place to hear great musicians before they blow up. I hope to experience Alice Smith here before the rest of the world wakes up and gets with real music. She is very engaging and she really put on a show. Wow!!!

  • by Anonymous on 4/12/13Bowery Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Alice Smith is SUCH an amazing out of this world artist!! LOVED the performance...probably the best that I've seen with her!!!

  • Alice Smith Rocks!

    by RubyStar55 on 4/12/13Bowery Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    It was an amazing concert. I wouldn't trade that night for the world! Alice gets under my sking and vibrates her energy and soul through my veins. I haven't stopped listening to her entire album, SHE; since I downloaded it from Amazon 3 weeks ago! Occasionally, I mix in a few songs from her first album [DREAM], just to recall how great I felt to hear something new and different and true.

  • Amazing show by Alice Smith @ Bowery Ballroom

    by boyspider77 on 4/12/13Bowery Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    When Alice Smith took the stage she was greeted by a sold out, very enthusiastic crowd & gave 100%. She was in perfect form w/ both voice & performance which shows that she can hold her own against any other vocal artist, rivaling Adele and others. Why she is not more well known to me is a mystery. Highlights which were many included the opener Caberet, Fool for you & Another Love (which had many in the audience singing along). I will be spreading the love about Alice to all that will listen & will run to her next show!
