91原创鈥檚 Dallas Smith inked a new U.S. record deal with Blaster Records through the label鈥檚 recent partnership with Big Loud Mountain.

In celebration of the signing, the record-breaking country artist will release his new single Kids With Cars in the coming days.

鈥淪pend 10 minutes watching one of Dallas鈥 shows and it鈥檚 clear how special of a singer and performer he is,鈥 said Blaster Records鈥 president Derek Smith.

As if he wasn鈥檛 busy enough, he鈥檚 also, in conjunction with fellow performer Chad Brownlee, behind the Boys of Autumn Charity Golf Tournament Aug. 25 at Redwoods Golf Course. It鈥檚 been sold out for about two months and raises money for Basics for Babies.

Smith has amassed international appeal since making his American country debut with the infectious single Tippin鈥 Point and dominating the Canadian Country charts with songs like Lifted and the multi-week #1 hit Wastin鈥 Gas. Named one of the Huffington Post鈥檚 15 Country Artists to Watch in 2015, Smith is the only Canadian male country artist to spend multiple weeks at the top of the Country Airplay Chart in the Nielsen BDS era for single Wastin鈥 Gas.

He will vie for four honours at the 2015 CCMA Awards 鈥 Album of the Year (Lifted), Single of the Year (Wastin鈥 Gas), Male Artist of the Year and Fans鈥 Choice Award, and earlier this year, won the JUNO Award for Country Album of the Year (Lifted).

Smith is currently in the studio working on his first American full-length debut with producer Joey Moi, who produced Jumped Right In and Lifted.

He鈥檚 recently been touring the U.S., performing at major festivals and opening shows for the likes of Keith Urban and Thomas Rhett.
