Hillary Smith and Soul Kitchen

The Santa Fe Performance Exchange is pleased to present Hillary Smith and Soul Kitchen at the Legal Tender in Lamy, NM. This historic venue still has one of the best dance floors around. Santa Fe Brewing Company microbrews will be available as well as the creative cooking of the Dining Car Crew.

Something of an Albuquerque super group, SOUL KITCHEN features vocalist extraordinaire, Hillary Smith, winner of Alb the Magazine's 2007, 2008, 2009 "Best Vocalist" and whose latest CD, NO EASY WAY walked away with five 2009 NM Music Awards, including "Best of the Year".

Guitar hero, Chris Dracup, also named "Best Musician" by Alb the Magazine and winner of Local IQ's, "Best Solo Act", is the driving force behind Albuquerque's SOUL KITCHEN.

Bassist, Marcus Casman and drummer, Mark Clark, both accomplished players and recording artists round out the New Mexico based band, voted Albuquerque's "Best Blues Group", 2010. Clark recently completed a national tour with John Popper and the Duskray Troubadours.

Soul Kitchen creates a dynamic blues-drenched sound that musically wanders somewhere between Saturday night revelry and Sunday morning redemption.
