From Apprentice To Master: Award-winning Songwriter AJ Smith Releases “Brooklyn Nights”AJ Smith, student of Eagles legend Glenn Frey, spreads his wings with the release of "Brooklyn Nights"
By: AJ Smith Music Fostered by the love and support of NYU, Smith met GRAMMY-winning producer Scott Jacoby (John Legend, Vampire Weekend) whom Smith has collaborated with on his upcoming EP, including January 15th’s new single “Brooklyn Nights.” Thanks to Jacoby, “Brooklyn Nights” came to be mastered by GRAMMY-nominated in-demand mastering engineer Emily Lazar (Coldplay, Sia). DC101’s Mike Jones compared the AJ Smith single to Fun’s GRAMMY-winning song “We Are Young,” while others liken Smith to Maroon 5’s Adam Levine or One Republic’s Ryan Tedder with a flair of Ed Sheeran and John Mayer. There’s a reason - in both its familiarity and individuality, “Brooklyn Nights” feels like it has always been your favorite song, even on first listen. Despite pressure from industry execs, peers, and other artists to drop out of school and “learn on the road,” Smith believes that taking the time to master his craft in school was well worth it. Adopting a best-of-both- “Brooklyn Nights” showcases the charm and introspection behind songwriting, drawing on the strengths of Smith's seasoned voice and encouraging a community of diverse music lovers to interconnect and feel the Brooklyn vibe. Starting January 15, 2015, “Brooklyn Nights” can be streamed at www.soundcloud.com/ Smith's next live performance is scheduled for January 27, 2016 at DC-area hotspot Jammin' Java.
