Thomas Rhett provided support to Conner Smith in moving on from a past romantic relationship. Conner Smith recently released his first album titled "Smoky Mountains," which is currently gaining popularity. One of the songs from the album, "Creek Will Rise," is rapidly climbing the ranks on the country music charts.
Not too far in the past, the emerging talent was an average 16-year-old who attended a concert of one of his beloved country music artists.
During the most recent episode of Taste of Country Nights, which is available on demand, Smith shares a personal experience about going to a Thomas Rhett concert in 2016 that had a significant influence on him.
At the age of 16, I went on a date with a girl to see Thomas Rhett perform at Ascend Amphitheater. We sat on the lawn section of the venue. During the show, Thomas Rhett played his song "Die a Happy Man," and I attempted to slow dance with the girl I was with, trying to be romantic and affectionate.
Smith mentions that the following day, his partner ended their relationship.
We have a moment of laughter, and then he proceeds to tell the story. He mentions that about 4 years later, he was on tour with Rhett, and at that point, he felt like he had the satisfaction of having the final laugh in that situation.
Smith has shared this story with the audience on multiple occasions and it has become a beloved choice among listeners.
Let's discuss the ultimate form of revenge and validation after ending a romantic relationship.
