Bio

Dashill Smith, a New York native, “… loves Hip-hop, Jazz, Soul and anything that speaks to my spirit… an easy going music fiend who just can't live without sounds… either listening to or making music in between bedtime.” ‘Dash’ – as he is affectionately known by his peers – practices what he preaches, performing in a variety of genres and always with his trademark brand of positive ‘on fire’ energy and creativity.

A member of “one of the greatest hip-hop groups ever assembled,” Phace Oricalz, Dash is the “Freestyle Battle-Rhyme Juggarnaut/Music historian/ Jazz Trumpet Improvisation specialist of the group” - traits that are equally apparent in his work with his Jazz Improv ensemble, the Inertia Trio. Dash’s need for creative output brings a depth of expression and covers as wide an expanse of sonic temperaments as the infinity of various combinations of rhythmic, melodic and textural exploration will allow.

Dashill’s talent has earned him appearances and/or studio dates with of a variety of artists including, Russell Gunn, Kebbi Williams, Mausiki Scales, Anton Harris, Venuseven and others. Definitely a major contributor to the evolutionary development of modern black music, Dash continues to bless the scene with his catalystic presence.
