Your chance to see country star Conner Smith in an intimate setting ahead of his 2025 Stagecoach Country Music Festival debut is happening on Monday, Oct. 14 in LIT at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino. Tickets are on sale now at the Fantasy Springs Box Office, via phone at (760) 342-5000 or online at FantasySpringsResort.com.
The highly anticipated show is part of the Rising Stars of Country series presented by BIG-106-FM and Sponsored by Toyota of the Desert.
Just 23 years old and already a seasoned veteran of Nashville’s elite songwriting community, Conner Smith has emerged as one of Country’s most hotly-anticipated artists – one who knows the past can still inspire the present, and good things come to those who wait.
An uncommon talent mixing prime-of-life passion with old-soul perspective, the rising singer/songwriter has spent 15 years matching a honeyed vocal to propulsive hints of bluegrass and the warmth of ‘90s Country, an instant-classic sound infused with riveting modern appeal.
Moving Country forward while remembering its all-natural roots, Smith’s critically-acclaimed full-length debut album Smoky Mountains is meant to stand the test of time. Featuring Gold-certified “Take It Slow,” viral hit “I Hate Alabama,” multi-week UK chart-topper “Creek Will Rise” and new single “Roulette On The Heart” featuring Hailey Whitters, his deeply personal 12-song project is one of classic style and contemporary spirit, and a reflection of the artist himself.
These songs, among others, laid an artistic foundation that earned Smith Artist to Watch status from Spotify, Amazon Music and Opry NextStage, while also making him the only Country artist on Pandora’s Ten List 2022 and secured 2023 recognition from MusicRow Next Big Thing and CMT Listen Up as well as joining the CRS New Faces Class of 2024.
These milestones led Smith to earn his first-ever ACM Awards nomination for New Male Artist of the Year. Deemed “An unstoppable force to be reckoned with,” by CMT, Smith’s authentic storytelling and rich, soulful voice has resonated with audiences nationwide, earning him a dedicated and passionate following.
Recently touring alongside some of Country’s biggest artists including Thomas Rhett, Cole Swindell, Chase Rice and Jordan Davis, Smith brings his signature “high energy fan forward show” (All Country News) to fairs and festivals this summer before headlining his The Storyteller Tour and joining Luke Bryan’s Farm Tour this fall.
Tickets to see Conner Smith are on sale now at the Fantasy Springs Box Office, via phone at (760) 342-5000 or online at FantasySpringsResort.com.
