The indie country singer-songwriter Corey Smith from Athens, GA, has been cultivating a devoted fan base since the 2003 release of his debut album, Undertones. His status as a “party-in-a-song phenom” is rapidly growing, largely due to an extraordinary Internet presence. Now, Smith’s heartfelt, back-porch guitar twang, soulful voice and well-crafted lyrics have audiences responding enthusiastically and turning out in droves for sold-out shows. He now has attained mass appeal with a following of fans that sing along to his quirky country music. After nearly a decade of honing his craft and coping with an unkind music business, 28-year-old Smith is thrilled to finally taste the fruits of his labor. The songs on his new album, Hard-Headed Fool, showcase a confident young artist in full command of his gift. Always a very visual songwriter, Smith’s lyrics have even greater depth and poignancy than before. The title track is about a man coming to terms with his choices in life.
