  • Tom A. Smith Premieres New Song “Get Me Started” on BBC Radio 1

  • Sunderland-based indie-rock singer-songwriter Tom A. Smith premiered a new song “Get Me Started” on BBC Radio 1's Future Sounds with Clara Amfo.


    The song is the second single since the 2023 “EP EP3”, following the release of “Fading Away” last October.
    The track was written and produced by Tom A. Smith, with production David Brewis.

    Tom A. Smith told NARC Magazine about the aong, “I don't think I ever go into writing a tune and think that I want to borrow from somebody or copy a style. The first thing that sprung to mind was that I needed a song that would demonstrate our bass player's (Katie Anderson) coolness live and could maybe replace an EP track called Toronto in the set as it evolved. So by using a synth bass line, it freed up Katie to play what really should be a lead guitar part but on a bass guitar instead.”
  • He continued, “When it came to the lyrics I reckon it literally took ten minutes from the moment I sat down and it started from the first line in the first verse. Having the melody already in place really restricts what you are singing so when the first line just fit it dictated what I was going to write about and it's really easy for me to write about my insecurities.”

    He added, “The final recording is pretty much identical to the original demo and I didn't want to be too far removed from that because it has a real vibe. The only extra addition on the final recording is a xylophone and that is because I really fancied playing one.”
