Highline Ballroom's 'Another Side Series' presents Alice Smith in an acoustic performance this Friday, April 23. Produced Jill Newman Productions, Alice Smith will perform live at the Highline Ballroom. Smith will showcase the songs off of her debut album, "For Lovers, Dreamers & Me".

Recently turned 29, Smith is, on the evidence of her solo debut, the most promising female singer-songwriter to go her own enrapturing way in a very long time. Her voice, with its four-octave range, is luscious and powerful and nuanced and finely sensitive to rhythm. Yet it never makes a cult of its own abilities; for all its fantastic manners, Smith's voice gets on down the road. Sometimes she sings with a booming intensity, yet Smith never loses the unlearnable balance and poise that separates good singers from great ones. And her basic attitudes, which are audible in every unforced phrase she negotiates, are all her own. www.alicesmith.com
