“When I heard ‘Fixer Upper’ and ‘CRZY’ for the first time, I knew they needed to be a part of my new musical chapter,” Smith said in a release. “They are authentic to my story and a taste of what’s to come with the album.”
The music video for “Fixer Upper” was also unveiled on Friday (September 29). Directed by Justin Clough, the clip includes intimate, home videos of the artist with his family and shows fans an inside look at his life off stage.

In an interview with Sydenham Current, Smith discussed his decision to jump to country from rock music. “It’s something I talked about for a while with my friends,” he told the publication. “I would be in the back of the bus warming up for shows with Three Days Grace and different acts I would be on tour with. I’d be in the back of the bus warming up to country records. It’s something that has always been in me and became stronger and more of an influence. It was a slow process but from the outside looking in, it may be a bit of a surprise.”
