John Smyths – “Last Night”

John Smyths has been writing and recording songs for a long time, even before he started putting them online. John’s new single “Last Night” is a clear nod to the country music he’s stuck with over the years. It’s simple, steady, and doesn’t try to do too much, which works in its favor.

This track feels like something that came out of someone who’s actually spent time with the kind of music he grew up on. You can hear how much he’s been influenced by artists like Hank Williams and Waylon Jennings, it sounds like someone who knows exactly what he wants to make, and I just adore his music. Earlier this year, he released “Now I’m Wiser”, which got a good response. “Last Night” picks up right after that. He’s not trying to reinvent anything, he’s just doing what he’s good at. That kind of consistency is rare these days.

If you love country that doesn’t feel overproduced or forced, give “Last Night” a listen. And if you want to stay in the loop on what John Smyths is working on next, follow him on social media. He’s got more coming in 2025.
