Brett Smith-Daniels

Best known as a sideman for blues-rock icon Walter Trout with whom he cut his teeth touring the world, Brett Smith-Daniels has become regarded by his peers in the music industry as one of the hardest working young independent musicians in the world. He's been described by Matt Sorum of Guns N' Roses as "the future of rock n' roll" and by Walter Trout as "the future of this music'. During his 15 years in the industry, Smith-Daniels has shared stages with musicians including Mick Taylor of The Rolling Stones, Micky Moody of Whitesnake, Randy Bachman of Bachman-Turner Overdrive, Ricky Byrd of Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, Tal Bachman, Jesse Roper, The Sheepdogs and more! He's also recorded with Matt Sorum of Guns N' Roses, Paul Rodgers of Bad Company, Bruce Whitkin of Hollywood Vampires and Daniel Konopka of OK Go. Now, with the benefit of this experience behind him, the former The Villanovas frontman is trying his luck as an independent artist.
