Emily Smith is one of the leading singers on the contemporary Scottish folk scene. Her powerful, clear vocals have gained her award winning, worldwide recognition. As a songwriter Smith has been likened to “a Scottish Joni Mitchell,” but as a passionate collector she is equally adept at presenting fresh and evocative interpretations of traditional songs.
Smith has previously released three solo albums and her fourth, “Traiveller’s Joy,” was launched at Celtic Connections in January. She is completing a tour of the west coast of the U.S. and is stopping in Maine for the two shows on her way to Celtic Colours International Festival in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.
