A native of Terrell, Texas, Shane Smith made music a full-time pursuit after moving to Austin. A passionate musician and songwriter, Shane soon connected with Bennett Brown, along with other musicians many of whom now make up The Saints. That group includes Bennett on fiddle, Dustin Schaefer on lead guitar, Chase Satterwhite on bass, and Zach Stover on drums.
“I DON’T LIKE JUST THROWING STUFF OUT THERE. IF I’M GOING TO BE SINGING ABOUT SOMETHING EVERY NIGHT, I TRY TO MAKE IT PERSONAL, MAKE IT SOMETHING I CAN REALLY RELATE TO.”
With a reputation as a high-energy live act with stunning four-part harmonies, Smith follows in the footsteps of such Lone Star songsmiths as Chris Stapleton, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Hayes Carll, and Ryan Bingham. Their first album, Coast, was released in 2013, and two years later came Geronimo, followed by Hail Mary in 2019.
“I don’t like just throwing stuff out there. If I’m going to be singing about something every night, I try to make it personal, make it something I can really relate to,” says Smith, the band’s lyricist and primary songwriter. “I like to sing with conviction, an honest conviction.”
It’s with this passion, timing and intention that Shane offers up his newest studio recording, “Hummingbird.” You may have heard about Shane Smith & The Saints from a friend who saw their amazing live show, or from a playlist on your favorite streaming service. Perhaps you heard the cast of Yellowstone shout them out in Season Four or maybe you’re just hearing of them now. Whatever the case may be, we hope you enjoy this latest single!
Keep checking back, there’s lots more music on the horizon. Shane Smith & The Saints are currently on tour all summer with Whiskey Myers.
