Mark October 27 on your calendar. Dallas Smith has set that as the release date for his first full-length, self-titled fifth studio album
Dallas Smith is one of the most successful Canadian country artists in history, exemplified in his 3x consecutive CCMA Awards Entertainer of the Year status. Now, he’s bringing the alt-rock meets country fusion that’s become his signature to the States as he embarks on his first full-length release with Big Loud Records. First impressions are hard, especially in music. Dallas Smith has done it as both a bona fide early 2000s rocker and an international country juggernaut whose success continues to surpass every expectation. He made another great first impression on September 14 when he announced his first full-length project with Big Loud Records and set his self-titled fifth studio album for release on October. 27.
The 12-song collection which has been years in the making includes previously released songs like the flirtatious “Singing In A Beer” and “One Too”(2022) featuring labelmate MacKenzie Porter, which cracked the Top 5 on Canada’s country chart.
Smith shares,
“I haven’t been this excited to release a big chunk of music in a long time. Artists talk about discovering who they are, and really, I don’t think I’m there yet. But I really felt confident people would fall in love with my first country record (2012’s Jumped Right In). And I’m feeling the same thing with this.”
Smith once again enlisted acclaimed producer Joey Moi for his Big Loud Records debut – a project firmly rooted in Nashville for the first time in his career. This is Smith’s fifth collaboration with the award-winning producer, who produced all four of his previous albums. The pair have created a sound coursing with overdriven energy, topped with layers of Smith’s lean, edgy vocal – and the steady confidence that comes with time.
Smith will unveil more details about the highly anticipated fifth album later this month.
