“The next big-voiced blues/soul sensation out of Brooklyn.”
MOJO Magazine

“Bette Smith moved effortlessly across the stage wearing a tight holographic vinyl dress and five-inch-heeled thigh-high boots, strutting like Tina Turner.” The New York Times

The January Blues Festival is thrilled to welcome direct from the USA, blues-soul-funk vocal powerhouse Bette Smith for an exclusive London date.

The young Bette Smith would have no idea that her music would take her around the world, from shows in America supporting the likes of Kenny Wayne Shepherdand Drive-By Truckers to festivals in North America and Europe; from working with artists like Kirk Fletcher, Harvey Mandel, & Arthur Adams to spotlights in the pages of The New York Times, Billboard, and beyond.
