Smith is an acoustic roots solo performer with a lyric-intensive style featuring guitars, resonators, and a voice that range from dirt-funk to intimate.

His single “River Gonna Talk,” was a nationwide 2023 #1 on the NACC chart and reached #1 in the nation on Radio Guitar One's Top 30 Americana Chart. David has been featured in American Songwriter and his songs have appeared on TNT, Lifetime Network, Travel Channel , several PBS affiliates shows, and he has a string of indie & major-indie song-cuts. His last 4 albums have been accepted for Grammy consideration. His Give-Back series donates time and raises money and awareness for a variety of charitable causes. David, his voice, and his songs, are authentic.

"Like John Prine and Guy Clark, David G Smith draws inspiration from his life and those around him. His songs capture the drama and good times, the laughter and loss that are the components of the modern world." - Tom Wilks, ICON Magazine
"David G Smith is a major find." - Robert K. Oermann, Music Row/Nashville
