About this concert
At just 23 years old, Louisiana native singer-songwriter and self-taught guitarist, Payton Smith, has a lot to celebrate. Smith began releasing music in 2019; quickly amassing over 50 million streams on his debut single, Like I Knew You Would. Known for not only high-energy guitar slinging and smooth vocals, the CMT 2021 Listen Up artist also composed and played every string instrument on each track of his debut project. As Taste of Country noted his raw talent, authenticity and strong work ethic are bound to bring him country music success for many, many years as one of 2021s Hottest Country Artists Under 25. Music Row called Smith the 2021 Next Big Thing, while Like I Knew You Would charted as the number 7 song of the year on Spotifys Hot Country.

Faren Rachels Biography
Known around Nashville as a “rare talent” (CelebMix), Faren Rachels is one of the hardest working women in Music City. Having played her way through the bars in her college town of Athens, the Sparta, Georgia native turned her sights on Tennessee in 2012. After working side-gig after side-gig, she landed a publishing contract that saw her earn cuts Billboard has called “steady, stomping [and] propulsive”. Rachels has also hit the road with country greats Luke Combs, Brantley Gilbert, Willie Nelson, Deana Carter & more. “My grandparents loved country music… they took me to my first concerts,” she recounts, “now I get to tour with some of the artists that they introduced me to.” Rachels’ honest approach to songwriting has landed her credits with artists such as Lainey Wilson, Ashland Craft, Chrissy Metz, and many more.
“I wanna make music for grown-ass women” she explains, “I wanna make music about things people are actually going through… not just drinking beer 24/7.”
Despite having to take a break from touring due to the pandemic, Faren is now poised to impress once again with a string of new releases (produced by Rocky Block and Austin Goodloe) and a rapidly building tour schedule. It’s no wonder her work has been described as “speaking to the universal journey, and struggle, of turning dreams into reality,” (American Songwriter) because Faren Rachels has lived, and thrived, through it all.
