The wall of pure sound that these two produce in live performance has astounded many a listener who would swear that there are more than just two people on the stage. Just when you thought you’d heard all that the Americana/Folk revival could show you, Misner & Smith bring a freshness and lyrical vitality you won’t find anywhere else. Their songwriting harkens back to the glory days of songwriters like Simon & Garfunkel, Crosby, Stills and Nash, and Cat Stevens. With a timeless San Francisco sound and poetic songwriting, they are a duo that blend roots and folk at the cutting edge of contemporary acoustic music, drawing comparisons to bands such as Fleet Foxes, Mumford & Sons, Anais Mitchell and others.
