Adrian Smith Life

Adrian Frederick "H" Smith (born 27 February 1957) is an English guitarist and member of Iron Maiden, for whom he writes songs and performs live backing vocals on some tracks. Smith grew up in London and became interested in rock music at the age of 15.

Dave Murray, the future Iron Maiden guitarist, who inspired him to play the guitar, was soon introduced.

After graduating from high school at 16, he formed Urchin, which he led until their demise in 1980.

He joined Iron Maiden in November 1980, replacing Dennis Stratton.

He left Iron Maiden in 1990 and, later, Psycho Motel, following a short-lived solo project called ASAP.

Psycho Motel was put on hold in 1997 when Smith joined former Iron Maiden singer Bruce Dickinson's band.

Smith and Dickinson would return to Iron Maiden in 1999, after which the band found new success.

Primal Rock Rebellion, Smith's latest side project, is called Primal Rock Rebellion.

Personal life

Adrian Smith was born in Hackney Hospital and grew up a few blocks away from his childhood friend and bandmate Dave Murray. Smith, the father of three children, was a painter and decorator from Homerton, Patrick, and Kathleen, the younger brother. He was "a Manchester United fanatic" as a youth, but he'd lose interest in football once he got into music.

Smith reveals that he used to carry "worms and maggots" with him on tour, and was featured on the front page of Angler's Mail on August 25, 2009. Since being married to his Canadian wife, Nathalie Dufresne-Smith, who now works with Maiden Flight, a cancer awareness/patient service group, and three children, Dylan, Natasha, and Brittany, the last of whom works as a professional film production assistant, Dylan, Natasha and Brittany.

Ironmaiden.com revealed in April 2020 that Smith's autobiography titled Monsters of River and Rock would be published in September 2020. The book focuses on Smith's obsession with fishing and ties back to anecdotes from his many decades of enjoying the sport when not touring and recording with Iron Maiden. Smith's book concentrated on fishing, with the remaining material focusing on his music career. MetalTalk referred to the book as a "prize catch amongst rock biographies" in its review of the journal, a high recommendation."

When it comes to spin-jumping creatures, Sonic the Hedgehog might spring to mind. But the video game character pales in comparison to one backyard bug, which claims the title as the fastest flipping creature on Earth. The globular springtail (Dicyrtomina minuta) can complete 368 rotations every second, according to new research led by North Carolina State University. Incredible footage shows the diminutive bug showing off its jumping prowess - and it would give the world's top acrobats a run for their money!
