The White Buffalo
The White Buffalo is the americana and country project of American musician and singer-songwriter Jake Smith, who is born in 1974 and raised in California after being born in Oregon. The act presents Smith as a hard-touring, hard-drinking style of artist associated with songs drawn from lived experience, and it is marked by a large physical presence and a wide vocal range.

The White Buffalo releases its debut EP, The White Buffalo EP, in 2005. It follows with the debut album Hogtied Revisited in 2009, the Prepare for Black & Blue EP in 2010, and the second album Once Upon a Time in the West in 2012.

The song “Wrong” appears in the surf film Shelter, directed by Taylor Steele and Keith Malloy. The White Buffalo also joins the Forest Rangers to record a cover of “House of the Rising Sun” by the Animals for the season four finale of Sons of Anarchy.
Performance profile
The White Buffalo plays in settings ranging from small dive bars to large European arena shows, reflecting the project’s live range and crossover appeal within acoustic, folk, alt-country, and singer-songwriter styles.
