Round Here Records’ PLATINUM hitmaker CANAAN SMITH brings his new foot-on-the-gas anthem to life in the official video for “Country Boy Things.” 

Filled with gritty, salt-of-the-Earth pride and filmed deep in his woodsy element, the clip was directed by Thomas Heney and finds Smith going full throttle in true country-boy style – with 4x4 trucks, ATVs and chainsaws all in the mix. Matching the cranked-up tone of the track, it’s a tribute to living loud, working hard and letting loose, all delivered with a blast of whatever-it-takes energy.

“I wanted to get out in the woods on this one – my kind of woods – which turns out, are Brian Kelley’s woods,” says Smith. “When he offered up his property for the video, I knew it was gonna be special. I wanted to capture the essence of a day well spent. That was the most hands on I’ve been with a video so far, and I’m glad it’s time to show it.”

Co-written by Smith with Florida Georgia Line’s Brian Kelley, Jaren Johnston of The Cadillac Three and Corey Crowder, “Country Boy Things” follows Smith’s return to the spotlight with his hopped-up and chilled-to-the-max “Beer Drinkin’ Weather,” highlighted by Rolling Stone Country as an easygoing “summertime throwdown.”

Meanwhile, Smith was recently announced as the first artist signed to Round Here Records – the creativity-focused brainchild of Florida Georgia Line superstars Kelley and Tyler Hubbard. Smith is currently touring as part of FGL’s CAN’T SAY I AIN’T COUNTRY TOUR and is celebrating his new music on the road with full-band sets alongside Dan + Shay and Morgan Wallen.

All this follows Smith’s romantically-charged breakout in 2014 with the PLATINUM #1 hit, “Love You Like That,” and his acclaimed Top 5 album debut from 2015, BRONCO. The undeniable talent went on to tour internationally and release a handful of other singles, including 2017’s “This Night Back,” which has tallied 30+ million digital streams.

As an artist, Smith’s co-written 2014 single “Love You Like That” became a PLATINUM-certified #1 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart and was followed up by the Top 25 hit “Hole In a Bottle.” His 2017 single, “This Night Back,” has racked up over 30 million digital streams and counting, helping launch the unique entertainer into the next chapter of his career. Smith has been revealed as the first artist signed to Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard of Florida Georgia Line’s newly-formed label, Round Here Records, with the infectious positivity of his new tracks “Beer Drinkin’ Weather” and  “Country Boy Things” leading the charge.
