Biography

Conner Smith was born and raised in Nashville. His mother, Jennifer Vickery Smith, worked in the country music industry and often interviewed artists. Conner Smith was inspired to start songwriting himself. He began writing songs with Nashville songwriters Ashley Gorley and Zach Crowell by the time he was 20.[1]

In late 2021, Smith released a song called "I Hate Alabama", which went viral on TikTok.[2] The song's success got him a deal with Big Machine Records' Valory label. He released an extended play for the label titled Didn't Go Too Far in 2022. The project's lead single "Learn from It" made the top 40 on Country Airplay.[1] Crowell produced the EP.[2] Smith released his second single "Take It Slow" to country radio in early 2023; it was certified Gold by the RIAA but only got to No. 52 on the charts. He released "Creek Will Rise"; it became the third most added song to country radio.[3]
