Thomas Rhett has played a significant role in helping Conner Smith move on from his past relationship. Smith, who has recently released his first album titled "Smoky Mountains," has also gained immense popularity with his song "Creek Will Rise," which is rapidly climbing the charts in the country music genre.
Not too far back in time, the talented up-and-coming artist was simply an average sixteen-year-old who attended a concert of one of his beloved country music performers.
During a recent episode of Taste of Country Nights, Smith shares a personal anecdote about his experience at a Thomas Rhett concert in 2016, which left a significant impression on him.
At the age of 16, I went on a date with a girl to watch a Thomas Rhett concert. The venue was the Ascend Amphitheater, and we were seated in the lawn area. During the show, Thomas Rhett performed his song "Die a Happy Man," and I tried to slow dance with the girl and be affectionate.
According to Smith, the following day, his partner ended their relationship.
After having a good laugh, he proceeds to tell the rest of the story. "About 4 years later, I am on tour with Rhett and I realize that I had the final victory in that situation," he remembers.
Smith has shared this story multiple times during his performances, and it is beloved by the audience.
