With a trail of mesmerised fans and over 180 million streams under his belt, Luton singer-songwriter sensation Myles Smith is poised to captivate audiences once again with his latest single, ‘Stargazing,’ out now via Sony Music UK/RCA Records.
This eagerly anticipated track promises to be a celestial addition to his already stellar repertoire of soul-stirring melodies and heartfelt lyrics. Initially teased to fans on socials last month, ‘Stargazing’ has only continued Smith’s meteoric rise, generating over 80 million views across his teaser videos, while the audio has gone viral and been used on over 26,000 creations on TikTok and 57,000 creations on Instagram Reels, generating nearly 300 million views across both platforms.
Building on the success of his debut EP, ‘You Promised A Lifetime’, with his latest offering, Myles invites listeners on a cosmic journey of selfdiscovery and introspection, inviting them to explore the depths of their emotions under the vast expanse of the night sky.
Of the song, Smith says: “I love the idea that the person we fall in love with has been there our whole life. I first came up with the idea for ‘Stargazing’ in LA earlier this year and it’s been amazing to see the journey of the track and everybody’s reactions to it.”
Hailing from Leagrave, Smith has carved out a niche for himself in the music industry with his unique blend of folk, Americana and pop influences.
A virtuoso guitarist since the age of nine, he has garnered acclaim for his DIY approach and genuine connection with his audience. His previous releases, including the viral hits “Solo” and “My Home,” have solidified his position as a rising star in the music world.
This year has already been a monumental one for Smith, who was recently announced as Apple’s Up Next Artist, Deezer’s Next Artist, and sold out his first ever headline tour across the UK, Europe and North America.
Smith’s dedicated fanbase is evident, with over one million followers on both Instagram and TikTok and 6.7 million monthly listeners on Spotify. He is set to embark on ‘The Slightly Less Lonely Global Tour’, which will include stops across Los Angeles, New York, Toronto, Chicago and more, with the majority of shows already sold out.

That will be the start of a number of festivals around the world including Glastobury, Austin City Limits, The Great Escape, Latitude Festival, Oberkampf Festival, and Pilgrimage Festival.
