Tory Smith/BLACK BOX Prompter on Living On Music

Update: 2025-05-07

Description

Tory Smith is the co-founder and CMO of BLACK BOX Prompter, the "smart yet stealthy" lyrics prompter that gives musicians, performers, and presenters the confidence to create a more powerful connection with their audience; the smart video chords & lyrics monitor is controlled with foot pedals so musicians can engage with their audience without the distraction of tablets or smartphones. Tory is also founder, booking manager and rhythm guitarist for 90 PROOF COUNTRY and also manager of an 80’s band called 80s GADGETS and the younger brother of lead singer of both bands who he affectionately refers to as the “Superman Singer” and who inspired his creation of the prompter: “I was inspired to create BLACK BOX Prompter after I saw my brother make a ‘poor man’s teleprompter’ out of an Amazon shipping box, so he could put his iPad on the floor and not be in his face.”
