Canaan Smith is the debut extended play (EP) by American country music singer Canaan Smith. It was released on March 24, 2015 via Mercury Nashville. [1]
Bill Caruthers of Country Standard Time gave the EP a mixed review. He praised the lyrics of "Hole in a Bottle" and "Stuck", comparing the former favorably to the work of David Lee Murphy. He was less favorable toward "Love You Like That", which he said "it doesn't really distinguish itself musically from any number of similar anthems." Caruthers also thought that Smith "runs the risk here of being lost in a carbon-copy crowd." [2]
The album has sold 7,700 copies as of May 2015. [3]
