Henri Smith Biography
*********************
Henri Smith was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana, the birthplace of Jazz. His career started in his home town where he polished his sophisticated and dramatic vocal delivery.

Henri Smith released his debut CD titled "New Orleans Friends and Flavours". His CD was produced with an all-star band of famous musicians.
Hurricane Katrina wiped out his home in New Orleans and he ended up moving north to the Sea Coast of Cape Ann where he now lives and shares his Cajun Heritage with the kind people of New England. It is yet another stark reminder that from a city below sea level, that has seen so much tragedy and suffering since Hurricane Katrina, that the spirit of New Orleans will always prevail through the superb Jazz and Blues performance of Henri Smith.
