Live Review: WATCH: Sam Smith 'Latch' (Acoustic)

SAM SMITH is the extremely talented voice behind DISCLOSURE's single 'Latch' and in a small studio space recently he proved that he doesn't need to be backed by lush production to create a timeless performance. He's perfectly capable of turning heads all on his own.

SMITH belts out an ambitious and very acrobatic acoustic version of the heavily electronic original. He's backed up by some crunchy piano chords and light cello but other than that's it's a very simple, straight to the point arrangement.

Check out a similar performance the singer / songwriter did for one of his own solo originals titled 'Lay Me Down' HERE.

Aside from recording SMITH has also been spending time writing new material with songstress SIA, we're very excited to see what comes of that collaboration.
