Jorja Smith dropped into KEXP’s studio on August 8, 2025, for a raw, soulful live take on “Try Me.” Backed by Benjamin Totten’s guitar chops and guided by host Larry Mizell, Jr., she delivers an intimate performance that feels both polished and spontaneous.
Behind the scenes, Kevin Suggs captured the sound while Matt Ogaz handled mastering, and a camera team led by Jim Beckmann (who also edited the video) brought every angle to life.
