Country singer, songwriter, and guitarist Corey Smith was born in Jefferson, Georgia, just a few miles from Athens, the region's musical center. Growing up with country music, he developed a writing style that steered clear of the genre tropes of trucks and backroad bonfire parties and pointed toward a less idealized but more natural view of what it was to be country in the 21st century.
In college, he had written some songs, and started performing them at parties, gaining encouragement from his friends and peers. A few years later, he began to release his own self-produced albums beginning with 2003's "Undertones", followed a year later by "In the Mood".
He released three more albums on his own Undertone imprint before finally breaking into the country charts at number 17 with 2011's "The Broken Record", which came out on the Nashville label Average Joe's Entertainment. He quickly followed up with Live in Chattanooga and the acoustic Maysville in the Meantime, gaining new fans and admirers with each release. Working with an outside producer for the first time, he teamed up with Keith Stegall, whose work with the Zac Brown Band comes close to Smith's feel and approach to country music. He signed with prominent roots label Sugar Hill in early 2015 and delivered "While the Gettin' Is Good" a few months later.
