Myles Smith

At the core of Myles Smith’s songwriting is a feeling of honesty. The 26-year-old rising star from Luton has always been interested in capturing some kind of realness and quotidian truth in his music. You can hear it on the soaring ‘Stargazing’, his smash hit earlier this year which charted and went platinum globally and, at the time of writing, is closing in on 550 million streams on Spotify alone. It’s a big song, but there is a warm, unfettered glow that weaves through it. It’s a quality you can hear in all of Myles Smith’s music, with their mighty choruses and bridges that hold you like an embrace: this is a sound which is stunningly anthemic and yet, somehow, still tenderly intimate.
