Sam Smith

Nashville native Sam Smith (aka Sam’s Myth) grew up drawing and drumming, and at 37 enjoys a professional career in both the fields of music and graphic art. When not touring with Ben Folds or producing and performing locally with Joe Pisapia, Zac Clark, or 90’s tribute group My So-Called Band, Sam runs his own graphic design business creating album art, branding, key art for independent film distributors and The Criterion Collection, editorial illustrations for the New York Times, and childrens artwork under his new kids brand SAMMY, launched in October 2016 to coincide with his solo show CREATION in Tokyo, Japan.

While juggling these different disciplines, Sam has mixed in other inspiring personal projects including an all-soundtrack radio show on WXNA, a Mario Kart themed art show curated at The Warren, and his podcast on poster design history, The Poster Boys, while carving out time for nature, disc golf, and plenty of film-watching, book collecting, and bubble tea drinking to inspire the creative flow.
