SUMMARY:Misner & Smith Live
DESCRIPTION:Misner & Smith are a Northern California duo known for their soaring harmonies\, finely crafted songwriting\, and genre-blending acoustic sound. Formed by Sam Misner and Megan Smith\, the pair have spent nearly two decades creating music that draws from folk\, Americana\, jazz\, and rock influences\, earning them a reputation for songs that are both poetic and emotionally resonant. \nTheir work is defined by precise\, story-driven songwriting paired with an improvisational spirit\, a combination that has led critics to describe their music as “beautiful complex poetry.” Their latest album\, All Is Song\, represents their most transformative work to date—an album shaped by years of writing\, reflection\, and deep musical exploration. \nRooted in their California upbringing—Sam from Sonoma County and Megan from Davis—the duo’s music carries a strong sense of place\, often reflecting the landscapes and emotional textures of the region. Whether performing as an intimate two-piece or with a full band\, Misner & Smith deliver performances marked by warmth\, chemistry\, and a rare vocal blend that has become their signature. \n$20 General Admission\nDoors open at 7:00pm\nThis is a BYOB event! \nPresented by Left of the Dial\, That California Sound\, and KDRT 95.7 FM
