Singer Songwriter Geri Smith began her musical training in classical piano at an early age, but by her teens, she began playing the guitar and writing her own songs. In college, she majored in voice, but continued to study piano and arranging. Upon graduating from Music School, Geri chose to continue performing over being a full time music educator.

She has just completed her second solo CD "Two Sides to a Story". One of the songs from this album "The Tears of Natalie" has been licensed by Bose for the Alfa Romeo/Fiat stereo demo. Another cut "On the Outside Looking In" is the theme song for the film "Zelimo", cowritten with Pete Levin. Pete produced this soundtrack with an all star cast of musicians. "Zelimo" is a film by Aleks Rosenberg. For more info check out Pete's site at www.petelevin.com.

Two songs from, her first album, "This Chain"- "Something to Do With Laurie" and "Just a Little Bit" have been licensed by the Bose Corporation for use in stereo demos and digital video discs. Geri's song "Mirage" was chosen by Fast Folk Musical Magazine for the CD release featuring Philadelphia artists. A second song "Can You See Me Hilda" was also recorded by Fast Folk for a subsequent release.
