Sy Smith

Sy Smith has been called by her peers "the hardest working woman in show business"! It's no wonder. With 3 CDs, 1 EP, and 1 DVD released independently, she's the driving force behind the underground soul scene in Los Angeles. Her voice is known widely as the singer who duets with Al Green on the "Soul Food" show and for her TV work as a backing vocalist on shows such as American Idol. Sy has also written songs for Macy Gray, Carlos Santana, Ronny Jordan, Brand New Heavies, Gerald Albright and Mya among others. She has toured with Whitney Houston, Usher, Meshell Ndegeocello and currently Chris Botti. But what Sy truly loves to do is attack the stage with her feminine fervor and bring the house down with her style of funk. Her videos "Camelot", "Fa Sho", "Fly Away With Me" and "The Art Of You" have all been popular on outlets like BET Soul and VH-1 Soul, and her brand new live DVD "Worship At The Temple" is an underground hit among her fans worldwide! Born in NY and raised in DC/MD, Sy shows off her knowledge of jazz, go-go, with a tinge of classical training without disturbing the groove!
