Smith & Brewer may have only started performing in 2015, but they have already supported big names like 10cc, Ralph McTell, Jools Holland, and Fairport Convention. Their distinct guitar styles and complementary voices have helped them rise in popularity.
Ben Smith and Jimmy Brewer originally met at an event organised by Joan Armatrading for the acts she had chosen to support her on her 2015 tour. Although they originally planned to just write together, they soon realised that their different guitar playing styles and voices complemented each other and they started performing together regularly. Since then, they have played together all over the UK.
