6/11/16 Jordan Smith (of The Voice)

Live at The Red Room at Cafe 939 / 8PM / $25 in advance / $30 day of show

Jordan Smith showed the world his musical gift in 2015 when he became the bestselling artist in the history of The Voice and the winner of season 9. Now, he shares his message through the songs on his forthcoming 2016 debut album for Republic Records/LightWorkers Records, Something Beautiful.
This singer and performer has certainly come a long way from his native Harlan, Kentucky. While on The Voice, Smith’s honesty made history, and he moved 1.5 million singles in six months and launched eight songs to the top 10 of iTunes, making him the first artist from any season to hit the iTunes Top 10 every single week of the live rounds. He also became one of two artists to notch three no. 1's during the show’s season. He's also the first act to own both the no. 1 and no. 2 titles concurrently on Billboard’s Hot Christian Songs Chart. After his time on The Voice, Smith headed right to the studio with legendary Grammy-winning producer David Foster (Céline Dion, Michael Bublé, Josh Groban), Academy Award nominee and songwriter extraordinaire Stephan Moccio (the Weeknd, Céline Dion), and Grammy-winning artist and writer Kirk Franklin (Gladys Knight, John Tesh) in order to begin work on Something Beautiful.
