Sy Smith : Thur 12/2


SySmith1

The Soul Sister Sy Smith is back in DC for a quick stop at Liv, bringing with her all that funk and soul and jazz that she shares with the rest of the Hollywood on a regular basis.

****Weird Fact****
Sy Boogie is actually the first person who hipped me to the Antoine Dodson madness. Last she was in town, I looked up and found myself wondering what "Climbing in your windows, Snatching your people up." had to do with anything. Of course this was a good couple months before the madness built to critical mass. No one had heard of this yet. She was quoting the man himself from an earlier more edgy production by Jneiro Jerrell...Listen
****Return to Relevance****

You may have heard great things about her (or even heard her for yourself) if you were aboard the Capital Jazz Cruise. Either way...she'll be rocking the house with her highly unique style.

The young lady has been on the stage with giants like Whitney Houston, DJ Quik, Me'Shell N'degeocello, Chris Botti, Usher, Chaka Khan, Macy Gray, Raheem Devaughn, Eric Benet and Brandy. Of course she still brings it right back to some of the cult classic current day folks like Eric Roberson, Nicolay, Rich Medina, W.Ellington Felton and Geno Young.

Come on out for a guaranteed great time!
