SUMMARY:State Theatre Presents: Caitlyn Smith – The Great Pretender To
 ur: Solo
DESCRIPTION:ADVANCE PURCHASE: $20\nAT THE DOOR: $25\nAll tickets will in
 cur an additional $4.50 surcharge.\nALL AGES\n\nLast year\, Monument Rec
 ords’ powerhouse vocalist Caitlyn Smith released High\, which Forbes c
 alled “captivating” and the Tennessean stated\, “showcases an arti
 st finally in control of her life and career.” It was the first half o
 f a record that the critically acclaimed singer/songwriter self-produced
 . Now Smith is poised to release the complete project\, adding six new s
 ongs to make her full record\, High &amp\; Low\, due April 14.\n\nFor Sm
 ith\, the making of High &amp\; Low represented a metamorphosis. Looking
  back\, the award-winning songwriter\, who has graced the pages of both 
 TIME Magazine and The New York Times and been named to Rolling Stone’s
  10 country artists to know and Paste ’s 10 country artists to watch\,
  realized she\, as many do in the era of social media\, had celebrated t
 he “highs” of life publicly – while navigating the “lows” in p
 rivate. Instead of showing vulnerability\, it was easier to pretend ever
 ything was fine. But over the course of writing and producing High &amp\
 ; Low\, Smith learned to peel back the curtain\, embracing all aspects o
 f her life\, including the “lows” she once held so close to vest.\n\
 nAvailable now\, “Lately” is another taste of what’s to come from 
 High &amp\; Low with Billboard calling it “yet another testament to he
 r ineluctable talents.” The track delves even further into the human e
 xperience\, detailing the attempt to overcome loss using a series of dis
 tractions.\n\nThe additional five new tracks balance 2022’s critically
 -acclaimed High\, celebrated by NPR as “her most fully realized projec
 t yet\,” with High &amp\; Low capturing the full picture of who Smith 
 is as an artist and as a creator – where embracing the yin and yang si
 mply makes you more human.\n\nWhile writing\, producing\, and recording 
 her latest album\, the Pollstar “Hotstar” has also spent the last fe
 w years on the road opening for George Strait\, Reba\, Little Big Town a
 nd Old Dominion which led to her debut on “The Kelly Clarkson Show” 
 after Clarkson saw Smith’s opening “Strait to Vegas” set\, taking 
 to Twitter to share praise for the performance. She has also performed o
 n Late Night with Seth Meyers\, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon\,
  The TODAY Show\, and CBS This Morning. Last year\, Smith headlined her 
 High &amp\; Low Tour\, as well as headed overseas to perform as part of 
 C2C in London. Stay tuned here and on social media for the latest news a
 nd tour dates for Smith.
