New song available now

Hit-making multi-talent Shy Carter and critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Caitlyn Smith have teamed up for “How Did You Sleep,” an inner monologue familiar to anyone who has experienced a breakup. Together they ask, “How did you sleep last night without me? ‘Cause I can’t close my eyes since you been gone.” Carter and Smith co-produced the post-relationship song, which they also co-penned alongside Bryan Simpson.

“‘How Did You Sleep’ is about missing the one you love and wondering how they’re able to make it through the night without you,” Carter shares. “It’s always been a dream of mine to work with Caitlyn Smith. Her voice brings the song to a whole new level, and I was so blessed to be able to write it with her and Bryan Simpson.”

“Shy Carter is one of my favorite artists in Nashville, and it was such a joy to write, produce and sing on this track alongside him,” adds Smith. “It’s a real story that I’m so grateful he trusted me to craft with him and share with the world.”

Carter introduced his sound with his debut EP The Rest Of Us, which showcased fan favorite tracks such as “Good Love” and “Beer With My Friends” featuring Cole Swindell and David Lee Murphy. He returns in 2023 with more of the high-energy, soul-country that has made him one of the genre’s brightest emerging artists. An in-demand songwriter and producer whose work spans pop, R&B, country and more, Carter has earned more than a dozen RIAA Gold and Platinum certifications for his collaborations.
