 New York Blues Hall of Fame inductee Bette Smith returns with her third studio album, ‘Goodthing’ – a powerful infusion of soul music and gospel into rock & roll. Produced by Grammy-winning producer Jimmy Hogarth (Amy Winehouse, James Bay, Paulo Nutini, Sia), the album highlights Bette Smith’s knack for anthemic, feel-good Soul Rock, driven by her signature raspy, soulful vocals reminiscent of legends like Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin, and Etta James. Drawing from her childhood experiences in the tough neighborhood of Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, Bette blends the soul music she heard on street corners with the gospel music from her church and home, influenced by her mother’s preference for gospel greats such as Mahalia Jackson and Reverend James Cleveland. ‘Goodthing’ marks a new pinnacle in her musical journey, building on the acclaim of her 2017 debut ‘Jetlagger’ and 2020’s ‘The Good, The Bad, and The Bette’. With her immense vocal range and the album’s infectious energy, Bette Smith solidifies her place as a vibrant and authentic rising soul artist, a true force in the music world. Tracks: 01.
