Juzzie Smith’s music has the feeling of freedom pulsing from within it. As you listen you feel the joy and playfulness that makes Juzzie so loved by people of all ages and from all walks of life. Using a combination of keyboard, guitars, harmonica and percussion (all played with mind-blowing mastery by Juzzie) his unique music embraces elements of the blues, folk, groove and roots.
But above all its feel-good music that soothes the soul and makes the heart sing.
‘Taking Time Out’ is Juzzie Smith’s 3rd album and follows on from the breakout success of his 2007 album ‘Happy Daze’. Both albums mark the journey of this virtuoso music man’s quest to find integrity, love and balance in his art and life. As a young father and tired of smoke-filled late nights on the pub circuit Juzzie made a conscious decision to take his music to the people and the streets, by busking mostly at local markets on NSW north coast. Each time he played, the crowds got bigger. He has gone on to become a true grassroots phenomenon, selling thousands of CDs, and is now a festival circuit favourite, loved for his energetic and awe-inspiring live performances.
