Geoff and Michaela Smith
Geoff & Michaela's music is primarily acoustic and draws on a variety of influences such as folk,soul and jazz. Although Michaela's songs betray an old fashioned emphasis on songwriting craft "Fragile Leaf"also concerns itself with contemporary themes and issues such as materialism and family breakdown, and the importance of truth and friendship .
"Fragile Leaf" partly documents a year spent travelling in Canada with their family, but also explores spiritual themes such as the journey of the soul and people and places from their home land of Penwith in Cornwall, UK.
Michaela's songs have a depth to them that will touch your soul.
"One of the strong points of the album is Michaela's singing.....her vocal technique and pitching is so good. This is a fine album." Sound on Sound Magazine UK
About their CD "Traces": "Combining a vocal quality reminiscent of Julia Fordham, harmonies like Indigo Girls, and exquisite guitar and mandolin ala Seals and Crofts, this music has a subtle mystical quality all its own." Justice St. Rain
