Smith & Adams bring a combination of Richard’s fireworks on the guitar, along with Julie’s lyrical style on the cello. Their repertoire comprises a variety of music, from classical Bach to Beatles pop.

Growing up in England, Richard once played in concert at Her Majesty’s Theatre in London with America’s internationally famous guitarist Chet Atkins. Julie was raised in Dayton, Ohio, trained at Interlochen Center for the Arts and the Cincinnati Conservatory.
