The Smile’s Tom Skinner announces upcoming live album

After the stellar release of 2022’s Voices of Bishara, the Smile drummer Tom Skinner is gearing up for the release of a new live version of the record entitled Voice of Bishara Live at “Mu”.

Arriving on May 10 via International Anthem, the upcoming album features Skinner and his five-piece ensemble as they perform the iconic six-track and more, including a brand new live take on Abdul Wadud’s 1978 composition ‘Oasis,’ out now.

The recording took place at London’s “Mu” in January 2023, featuring Skinner alongside cellist Kareem Dayes, bassist Tom Herbert and woodwinds instrumentalists Robert Stillman and Chelsea Carmichael. The group will return to the venue to launch the album in May.
