Conner Smith is getting back to his songwriting roots with Smoky Mountains Sessions.
Arriving Aug. 2, the four-track project — named after his debut album, Smoky Mountains — features a newly recorded version of his Hailey Whitters-assisted single, “Roulette on the Heart,” as well as three new songs, two of which he wrote by himself.
“These songs came from a real place, and were recorded as real as possible. We cut these live, with my band, on the floors of the beautiful Echo Mountain Studios with a stain glass Jesus looking down,” Conner shares on Instagram. “This is the start of me getting back to the heart of what I love, telling stories. Next step in the journey for us.”
Conner’s post also included the EP’s cover art, and preview clips of “Boys in the Picture” and “A Thousand Miles Away.”
