Nate Smit has kicked off 2024 with the release of his new single Bulletproof out everywhere now
Following his eight-week No. 1 smash hit, ‘World On Fire’, powerhouse country star Nate Smith debuted his latest anthemic single, ‘Bulletproof’, along with an official video. Written by Ashley Gorley, Ben Johnson, and Hunter Phelps, the song battles the bulletproof memory of a past relationship. Additionally, the singer announced his Through The Smoke EP, arriving April 5. Pre-add/order/save the EP and listen to ‘Bulletproof’ here.
Nate shared about the song, “Ashley Gorley, who is one of the co-writers on ‘World On Fire’ with me, wrote ‘Bulletproof’ and had sent it to me. I immediately loved it. I thought the beginning had a Tom Petty vibe to it and then the chorus has this massive lift. It sounded like an anthem, and I knew I wanted to cut it.”
He added, “I’ve dealt with some heartache throughout my life, and I’ve also been the deliverer of heartache to some. It’s funny because we think sometimes that alcohol is gonna make you forget the person, but often times it brings it right back up. There are so many things we can try to do to get over someone we love, but really time is the only thing that can help.”
‘Bulletproof’ will be one of seven songs included on his Through The Smoke EP, due April 5th. Smith shared about the project, “I’ve been through a lot of adversity in my life, but ‘through the smoke’ came to mind one day and I thought that was the perfect way to describe making it through tragedy. It captures what it looks like on the other side of heartbreak, on the other side of tragedy, on the other side of giving everything you’ve got to go after what you want to do in life. I think this EP is a transition between all the fire and pain and everything I went through, and then overcoming. And that’s what I want people to feel. It’s layered in there.”
Smith has had an incredible start to the year, earning the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Country Airplay chart for eight consecutive weeks. The accomplishment ties Morgan Wallen’s ‘Last Night’, Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett’s ‘It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere’ and Lonestar’s ‘Amazed’ for the second-longest No. 1 chart reign since Country Airplay began in 1990. The song also hit No. 1 on the Mediabase/Country Aircheck chart for three weeks.
Fresh off a breakout year in 2023, Smith gears up to make an even bigger splash in 2024 with a stacked schedule of tour dates and new music in the works. Visit NateSmithOfficial.com for a full list of upcoming shows and additional info.
