Postponed - Sam L. Smith w/ Logan Purcell

Sam L. Smith is a 21-year-old new and upcoming modern traditionalist country artist who believes in reviving that true country music sound! A true cowboy, Sam comes from the small town of Mount Sterling, Kentucky. He grew up listening to pure-country vocals stars like Keith Whitley, George Strait, Alan Jackson and Tim McGraw and over the years became drawn to the electrifying energy of modern stars like Josh Turner, Cody Johnson, Dierks Bentley and Jon Pardi. Fast forward to present day; Sam's hit original song “Blue Jackets”, which is a tribute to the Future Farmers of America (FFA), has blown up and been heard half a million times throughout all platforms. The National RFD-TV station called the song an “anthem for the FFA”. Sam’s catchy country song “The Way You Make Me Feel” went to #1 on the Independent World Country Charts. “Teach Me How to Love Again”, a slow heart break song, was pitched originally to Joe Diffie before he unfortunately passed away. Therefore, the songwriter gave Sam the song to record and release. His latest release, “Stripes”, was written by legendary songwriter, Leslie Satcher, whose songs have been cut by George Strait, Reba, Blake Shelton, Gretchen Wilson, Cody Johnson, Randy Travis and more.

Sam has played at some of the biggest stages such as Rupp Arena in Lexington, KY and Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, IN. He was nominated for the 2022 Josie Awards “Country Male Artist of the Year” at the Grand Ole Opry. He was also nominated for the 2020 ICMA “New Artist of the Year”, and the WBCW Florida's Country Radio Awards 2020 “Male Artist of the Year''. Sam is currently working on a project to release this year that will include songs written by GRAMMY nominated and award winning songwriters in Nashville.
