TEXAS NATIVE Singer/Songwriter, JEFF SMITHART brings all these styles to the Music Table with the New sound of "REDNECK COUNTRY" With his Debut CD " REDNECK PROUD" produced by another TEXAS NATIVE "BRANDON LYNN SHANE" Jeff and Brandon have blended all of the above mentioned styles to create Jeff's unique style of "REDNECK COUNTRY" Jeff was lucky enough to have parents that would hit the Honky-Tonks around Dallas, TX, and would bring bands from those honky-tonks to their home for Jam Sessions. In general, he grew up listening to the kind of music that is returning today. Jeff was raised on Country Honky Tonk with a mix of Southern Rock and Blues. With his musical family going back to his grandparents and to the late Stevie Ray Vaughn.Band/artist history
In 1979, Jeff met Don and Connie Haines and their Son, Kenny Howard...who owned The Wind River Canyon Band, which led to Jeff's first time on the stage with a band. In 1981, Jeff met Ben Logan with The Collin County Band. Then in 1983, Jeff met Billy Boozer from Raleigh, NC. Billy Boozer was a rock guitar slinger...with Jeff's writing/vocals and Billy's hot riffs....they put together The Billy Boozer Band. 1986 - vocalist for the Corner Boys Rock/Blues Band
1988 - Jeff turned back to his roots with a rounded education in music and stage, and with Ben Logan and Rick Dinker they put together Jeff Smithart & County Line.
1997 - Jeff met Dave Young from St Louis MO. , who needed a front man for his band Private Stock.
2002 - Jeff took time off to write and play smaller rooms acoustically. Now, he has the proper people in place to support him and his dream. IT IS TIME TO DO IT!Have you performed in front of an audience?Yes....Locally ...and I LOVE IT!
---My special moment is the year I played The Little Elm Autumnfest and Welcomed our local soldiers home from the Gulf War.
