NASHVILLE (CelebrityAccess) – Payton Smith’s journey in the music industry has been nothing short of impressive. With his new EP Up From Here, which dropped on Friday (April 5), and the recent signing with The Familie for management, he’s poised for even greater success.
“I could not be more excited to sign with The Familie as my new management team. I believe their approach and vision to managing an artist is exactly what I need for my career and I am so excited to get to work. It is fitting that my new EP is called Up From Here. Chase, Royce, Steve, Nano and the whole team… let’s get after it!” shares Smith.
Smith burst onto the scene in 2019 with “Like I Knew You Would,” his debut single, which garnered over 50 million streams—no small feat.
Smith’s musical prowess extends far beyond just his vocals and guitar skills. As a CMT 2021 Listen Up artist, he showcased his ability to captivate audiences with his multifaceted talents. Crafting each track of his inaugural project with his hands speaks volumes about his dedication to his craft and hands-on approach to music. His ability to play multiple instruments adds depth to his sound and allows him to realize his artistic vision fully.
The partnership with The Familie seems like a natural fit, with both parties expressing excitement about the future. “I am so excited to be working with Payton Smith. I believe Payton is one of the most talented singers, songwriters, and musicians Nashville has to offer, and I am fired to share his talent with the world. 2024 is going to be a big year for Payton Smith,” shares Chase Berlin, artist manager at The Familie.
Up From Here features hits like “In That Case” and “Wouldn’t Put It Past Me,” showing that Smith’s star is only rising. With each project, he pushes boundaries and captivates audiences, solidifying his status as one of Nashville’s brightest talents.
