Designed to inspire and deliver a message of possibility and strength when you need it the most, the UK’s own Smilee connects with equal parts boldness and delicacy, for the evocative and uplifting new single Have Faith.
Emerging from the renowned Brit School, the performance hub that brought us pop legends Adele, Amy Winehouse and Kate Nash, Smilee unites the power and soulful conviction of her voice with heartfelt songwriting and classic pop integrity, whilst offering a clear twist of style in the structure, writing and production of her music.
Have Faith begins as a piano-led ballad reflecting on the darkness that can sometimes consume us. The song goes on to employ subtle vocal harmonies, whilst shifting the dynamic to focus on embracing and inspiring a significant other – building up to a near Gospel-like warmth and power, as this central looping sentiment of Have Faith repeats and gathers momentum.
Classically pop in many ways but also distinctly recognizable for its mild theatrical power, the drama of the drum-line, and the contrast between long-form verses and the simple conclusion of the hook, Have Faith proves a naturally memorable and rather timeless composition.
Smilee has made waves throughout the UK scene since the release of her debut single Wavelength back in 2020, and continues to build upon that with both precision and passion as a modern artist.
