There hasn’t been a female-male duo break out in Nashville in a decade and this pair has the talent and drive to make it happen. “We have been a duo for a decade and truly feel this new music, the stories we tell, the harmony, the heart, and uniqueness of our vocal blend we bring to the table with it will be a game changer for us,” says SmithField. “We have never put out music that has felt more genuine to who SmithField is and what we are all about than this. You can’t listen to one song on here and not know it’s a SmithField song. We are ready to break the glass ceiling that has been absent in our genre for quite some time and we are so excited to finally have it out in the world. This is just the beginning.” NEW TOWN is about those refreshing experiences in life – whether it be love, a new job or a new friend – that make a town feel like it has a brand-new spark.

The EP is symbolic in that it is a new chapter for SmithField.

NEW TOWN EP includes three unreleased tracks in addition their three previously released tracks – “We’ll Figure It Out,” “Sunday Best” and “Something Sexy,” that Sounds Like Nashville says “… the rising team features smooth harmonies and a connection you can feel in each lyric — and now they’re using it to tribute some of the steamiest songs in country history.” SmithField has an uncanny ability of making their listeners feel like they’re sitting down for coffee with them and captivating them with both sides of a story. The EP comes at a fitting time as the world is starting to slowly reopen, with coffee conversations and happy hours finding a place on the calendar.
