Lauren Spencer Smith is a generational talent and has earned praise for her versatility, both vocally and musically. At just 18 years old, Lauren’s had a meteoric rise this year — "Fingers Crossed," her breakout single hit #1 on the Apple Music Global Chart, #1 on Spotify’s Canada and UK Charts, #2 on the US Spotify Chart, and Top 10 on the Global Spotify Chart. In its debut week her recent single "Flowers," earned highest new entry on Spotify US & Global Charts and debuted #1 on iTunes. Today, she announces she’ll be taking her powerhouse vocals and magnetic personality on the road with headlining shows this August and September in cities across North America — her hometown of Vancouver, BC, San Francisco, New York, Toronto, and more. Tickets will be available this Friday at 10am local time at http://www.laurenspencersmith.com/tour.
In addition, Lauren announces that her next single "Narcissist," will be out on July 29th, just in time to perform it at her upcoming shows. “Narcissist” is a gorgeous pop ballad with Lauren's writing and vocals on full display. Produced by Greg Kurstin (Adele, Beck, more), this song levels-up Lauren's already proven ability to write hyper-specific yet universally relatable stories about love and life.
Details are at the core of Lauren’s craft, and she always writes from a place of perspective. Speaking on the process she shares, “When I’m writing I always think about what’s going on in the world. How are people feeling? What are they going to relate to? I want to listen to a song and know what it’s about, that’s why I write with details about my life but always think, how will my fans relate? I want it to feel universal.”
Lauren is currently in the studio working on her debut album.
ABOUT LAUREN SPENCER SMITH:
Lauren Spencer-Smith will let you know what’s on her mind. When she steps up to the microphone, the Vancouver Island singer and songwriter shares the kinds of stories typically only traded by best friends long after the sun goes down. Her unfiltered feelings resonate just as loudly as her stunning vocals do, tracing life’s ups, downs, and everything in between with sharp lyrics and even sharper melodies. Balancing a job, school, and teaching herself piano and guitar, she prolifically posted videos to social media. One day, she sang Lady Gaga’s “Always Remember Us This Way” from A Star Is Born in her dad’s truck. The ensuing impromptu clip (filmed by her father) exploded with tens of millions of views on Facebook. American Idol invited her to appear on the 2020 season and she placed in the Top 20. Countless songwriting sessions followed as she honed her chops alongside several well known producers and more independent talent. In the midst of the COVID-19 lockdown, she launched her TikTok page with a steady stream of content. She gained traction on streaming platforms with a stunning cover of Olivia Rodrigo’s “All I Want” and originals such as “For Granted” and “Back To Friends.” However, “Fingers Crossed” primed her for a major breakthrough. A smartphone video of Lauren’s unplugged performance of the song set TikTok ablaze, generating over half-a-billion views on the platform and eclipsing over 100 million streams. After earning acclaim from Billboard, Genius, Stereogum, and more, Lauren properly introduces herself on a series of 2022 singles and her forthcoming full-length debut
