Canaan Smith
Canaan Smith is taking the next bold step in his journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance with his third studio album, ‘Chickahominy.’
‘Chickahominy’ marks a significant departure from his earlier work. “I consider this my transitional album,” says Smith. “It’s about exploring myself creatively and cutting ties with the inherent striving for commercial success. Instead of focusing on ‘what will work,’ I’m now more focused on expressing myself, and this is only the first step in that direction.”
Throughout 11 tracks, which were all written or co-written by Smith and produced by Anthony Olympia, the album is a raw and fearless expression of who Smith is now both musically and personally, peeling back the layers of perfectionism and confronting the parts of himself he’s long been afraid to face.
“It’s my most song-forward album yet,” he says. ”It’s a rollercoaster of emotions, just like my mind. One minute I’m carefree and stoned, and the next I’m worried to death. Sonically, it’s the most explorative album I’ve ever made. We let the band breathe, no click track, just a more natural, organic flow. As an artist, what I want most is to let myself breathe.”
Named after a river in his hometown of Williamsburg, VA, ‘Chickahominy’ finds Smith stretching beyond his past limitations, sonically, lyrically and thematically.
The powerful storyteller draws listeners into a world where the boundaries of good and evil collide, as he discovers the multitudes of the human experience.
