We’re excited to welcome legendary fingerpicking guitarist Richard Smith for a very special solo show here at Chromatic Studios!

In addition to releasing solo records, duet and ensemble records, Richard has also performed or recorded with Chet Atkins, Les Paul, Tommy Emmanuel, Suzy Bogguss, Steve Wariner, Jimmy Fortune, Earl Klugh, Martin Taylor, Joscho Stephan, Sam Bush, Stuart Duncan, John Schneider, Lee Roy Parnell, Brent Mason, Rory Hoffman and a host of others.
