About Sy Smith
A leading force in post-millennial indie soul, Sy Smith proves that an R&B artist can be progressive while remaining firmly rooted in tradition. Foremost a singer with a vocal range spanning five octaves, Smith began an unending succession of background gigs with Whitney Houston in the 1990s, and has since worked closely with Grammy-winning trumpeter Chris Botti and Grammy-nominated group the Foreign Exchange, among dozens of other artists. After a brief period signed to a major, Smith established an independent label of her own, an outlet for compositionally solid and sonically adventurous albums including The Syberspace Social (2005), Conflict (2008), and Fast and Curious (2012), followed by the self-produced Sometimes a Rose Will Grow in Concrete (2018). After she appeared on Zo! and Tall Black Guy's Abstractions, she continued to collaborate with the duo for her elegant sixth album, Until We Meet Again (2024), issued through Foreign Exchange Music.
Sy Smith has also released music as a member of The Brand New Heavies.
