Nate Smith plans to release his debut, self-titled album on February 17th. "It's been so much fun making this album, and I really believe in every one of these songs," he said. "Releasing an album has always been a goal of mine, but at the end of the day it's really not about me. It's about being able to reach other people with music that means something." The project features 20 tracks. Nate has had some challenges along the way. He lost his hometown of Paradise, CA to Camp Fire, the deadliest and most destructive fire in the state's history. After the fire, Nate turned to music to cope with his feelings. It eventually inspired a cross-country road trip to Nashville to pursue music fulltime.
