Conner Smith teamed up with “Everything She Ain’t” hitmaker Hailey Whitters to create the sole collaboration on his debut full-length album, Smoky Mountains. Smith released the long-awaited, 12-track project on Friday (January 26).

“This album is a journey through my roots, a tribute to the place that shaped me, and every song is a piece of my heart,” Smith said in a statement on Friday. “I’ve poured my soul into these tracks, and I hope they resonate with you as much as they do with me.”

Smith spoke about the tracks on his debut album with his mother, Jennifer Vickery Smith, on her podcast, Got It From My Momma, in th new episode on Friday.

Smith is in the midst of his headlining “Creek Will Rise Tour,” named after his high-energy radio single.
