Singer, a songwriter, and instrumentalist Neddy Smith is a trailblazer in the world of music. As a performer and recording artist, he has defied traditional boundaries that restrict his sense of creative freedom; he also protects himself from residing in anyone’s established pigeonhole. By choice, he writes and sings songs that reflects his sense of being while playing the upright or electric bass accompanied by other musicians.
As a bandleader, he feels spiritually alive. His style is funky, reggae, dancehall, tropical grooves, easy listening songs about tradition, culture, love, peace, happiness, and life. He plays sweet basslines and vocalizes memorable melodies with words that speak to the human condition. Although he likes to swing a hot jazz number and reaches deep for a soulful Blues, his latest album digs far deeper into his cultural past and expressions from his formative years. Thus, bringing value and meaning to each vocal track on the recordings to help heal a troubled world crying out for help. Neddy has skillfully blended this album into a seamless flow of an enjoyable playlist of songs.
Switching his focus back to his singing after releasing his last vocal album in 2007, Neddy decided to return mainly to vocalizing for his fans who were left behind while composing for his Jazz projects and a contemporary instrumental album. This CD is continuing his emancipation journey. Neddy has released a few 12” vinyl records in the past. He has also worked on various other albums plus three previous of his own.

“I need to get me a copy of this CD as soon as it drops, November 15th. What I’ve heard convinced me that the entire album filled with 100% authentic Neddy Smith music. The music has a lovely vibe.”
- E. Karnie Pappa – Visual Artist
"It’s sometimes difficult to imagine a performer on the music scene with such musicality as Neddy Smith, who combines his love for words and music so concisely and appreciatively in a unique intuitive flow. His lyrical insight from his newest album is memorable, danceable but with a message fit for today, it’s a world-class CD."
- Dolly Curtis - Radio and TV Personality
Words expressed after the final pre-release listening session, “It’s music you can dance to with a message that creeps up on you, suddenly, from deep within his heart to mine just as one of his songs hits you right between the ears.”
- David Mario Smith – Principal Analysis and Founder at InFlow Analysis.
“The music sounds and feels like 'am in the Club'...”
