Born and raised in Lancashire, England, Bee Smith is an award-winning country artist and songwriter bringing a timeless 90s country influence to a modern international stage. With a vocal and storytelling style echoing the heartfelt honesty of artists like Lee Ann Womack and Jo Dee Messina, Bee crafts music rooted in connection, hope, and vulnerability — creating songs that make people feel “understood, heard, and connected.”
Her talents have earned global recognition: 2025 International Songwriter of the Year (ISSA), multiple Josie Music Awards nominations, honours from the World Songwriting Awards, and finalist nods at the Intercontinental Music Awards — all while building her career as a fiercely independent UK artist breaking into the Nashville scene. She writes with the best of Music City, having signed an exclusive transatlantic publishing deal with Thornton Cline Music / Clinetel Nashville.

In April 2026, Bee released the defining duet of her career — Summer Before The Fall — a transatlantic collaboration with Texas country legend Chris Chitsey, released via Clinetel Nashville Records with SONY/The Orchard distribution. The song hit #1 on the World Indie Music Chart, earned a 2026 Josie Music Awards nomination for Vocal Event of the Year, and took home the World Songwriting Award for Best Music Collaboration. Filmed on location in Cancun and Isla Mujeres, Mexico, the official music video has introduced Bee to a massive global audience.
Regularly visiting Nashville to write, record, and perform — including showcases at the legendary Bluebird Cafe — Bee Smith is fast becoming one of the UK’s most exciting country exports. As she says: “I want to make empowering country music with heart, hope, and 90’s nostalgia.”
