Presented by the Monster Energy Outbreak Tour, Tickets Go On Sale to the Public on Friday (1/27)
NASHVILLE, TN (January 25, 2023) – Just 22 years old and already a seasoned veteran of Nashville’s elite songwriting community, CONNER SMITH is an uncommon talent mixing prime-of-life passion with old-soul perspective as reflected on his latest single “Take It Slow” (The Valory Music Co.). Knowing good things come to those who wait, Smith takes his foot off the gas in the easy-does-it anthem co-penned alongside Ryan Hurd and Mark Trussell, and its new video out today shows off his romantic reward. Already amassing nearly 100 million streams to date, the modern-Country power ballad built around pounding drums and hearts finds Smith letting love move at its own pace, savoring every moment with a slow-rolling vocal and tender memories made to last. Meanwhile, the no-hurry theme comes alive in the rising star’s official music video, developing like an old-school photo of passionate perfection.

“It’s been special to see what ‘Take It Slow’ has become,” shared Smith. “I’m thankful to the team for helping me bring it to life with this video and excited for everyone to continue connecting with the song.”
As one of Country music’s most hotly-anticipated new artists, Smith revealed plans for his first-ever headline IF I WENT TO COLLEGE TOUR earlier this week featuring special guests Mackenzie Carpenter and Jonathan Hutcherson. Presented by the Monster Entergy Outbreak tour, the trek kicks off February 9 in Rosemont, IL and wraps April 28 with a homecoming show in Nashville.
