Following the release of High last year, Caitlyn Smith has rounded out the project with the announcement of the full record – High & Low – out 14th April. Pre-save the album here.
Last year, Caitlyn Smith released her phenomenal project High, the first half of her new self-produced record. Smith has announced the completion of that project, adding six new songs to make her full record, High & Low, due April 14.
On High & Low, Caitlyn Smith navigated the highs and lows of living life in the public eye – pretending everything was fine, while experiencing the lows on the inside. On the project, Smith learned to peel back the curtain, embracing all aspects of her life, including the “lows” she once kept private.
“Lately” is the first taste of what’s to come from High & Low and is out now. The track delves even further into this human experience, detailing the attempt to overcome loss using a series of distractions.
“I’d realised that I’d grown into this version of myself that only wanted to show and talk about the highs and became quite dependent on keeping up this façade that I have it all together,” Smith details. “Real life is gritty, and wild, and never perfect, and it’s given me so much freedom to be able to be more vulnerable, not always put on a happy face, and be honest and unafraid of the more difficult feelings.”
Written by Smith with Gordie Sampson and Troy Verges, you can listen to “Lately” here: Lately (lnk.to).
The additional five new tracks capture the full picture of who Smith is as an artist and as a creator.
