Conner Smith Releases Long-Awaited Debut Album, ‘Smoky Mountains,’ Celebrates With Sold-Out Hometown Concert

“This album feels like just the beginning,” the rising star admits.

Conner Smith unveiled his long-awaited debut album, Smoky Mountains, on Friday (Jan. 26) via The Valory Music Co. 

The full-length project draws straight from the singer/songwriter’s all-natural Tennessee roots while honoring the new wave of country music with electrifying instrumentals and poignant lyrics. Smith is responsible for penning all but one of the 12 tracks, meaning this collection offers a deeply personal look into his journey through a blend of classic and traditional stylings that act as a reflection of himself.

“My whole life has been centered around Country music and this dream,” shared Smith. “I love storytelling and it was important to me that every song on this record had its own place. I wanted each song to matter and tell a different side of my story and I think we accomplished that. This album feels like just the beginning.”
