Myles Smith

Despite not having released an album yet, Myles Smith has racked up millions of streams for his 2024 single ‘Stargazing’ and sold out a string of headline dates in the UK, EU and US.

Born to a British Jamaican family, Myles Smith is a rising singer-songwriter known for his emotionally resonant lyrics and heartfelt performances that blend folk, Americana and pop influences. Growing up in the culturally diverse town of Luton, Smith listened to a broad range of music, from pop-punk to hip hop, and began teaching himself the guitar and piano. By age 12, Myles was performing covers of Ed Sheeran, Marcus Mumford and Chris Martin at local open-mic nights and parties. It wasn’t until Myles began posting these covers online that he began to amass a global audience. In 2022, his rendition of The Neighbourhood’s ‘Sweater Weather’ went viral on TikTok and led to Myles officially releasing the track on streaming platforms the following year.

In late 2023, Myles released several further singles of his own, including ‘My Home’ and ‘Solo’. Both tracks were well received, with Myles’ rapidly growing following finding resonance with his introspective style of songwriting, passionate vocals and alt-country sensibilities. Sony’s RCA Records went on to sign Myles Smith in 2024, giving him the platform and resources to make the leap from online sensation to a veritable touring musician. You Promised a Lifetime, Myles’ debut six-track EP was released in March 2024 through RCA, featuring ‘My Home’ and ‘Solo’ which both now sit at over 77 million and 140 million Spotify streams respectively.
