In my opinion, there isn't a song that Nate Smith can't sing. The rising country star continues to release hit after hit and even worked his magic on a new cover.

Smith recently caught the attention of music fans everywhere and released his cover of Snow Patrol's "Chasing Cars." The 2006 hit blew up for him originally on TikTok over the summer, and his fans became obsessed.
Now, they have an official music video to accompany his cover of "Chasing Cars," which you can watch below. The song featured on Snow Patrol's fourth studio album, Eyes Open, garnered the band a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Song back in the day.
Smith, however, released his self-titled debut album just last spring. It features twenty infectious country tracks, while the deluxe edition of the album includes his current single and fan-favorite, "World On Fire."
Last month, Smith received RIAA Gold certifications for his songs "Wreckage" and "Under My Skin." The success of these tracks follows his Platinum-certified and No. 1 hit, "Whiskey On You."
"Releasing an album has always been a goal of mine, but at the end of the day it’s really not about me. It’s about being able to reach other people with music that means something,” Smith shared.
Smith spent the summer out on the road with Thomas Rhett for his 2023 Home Team Tour and is currently a supporting act on Cole Swindell's Twelve Tour.
There's no sign of slowing down in the New Year for Smith either. He will embark on his very own headlining World On Fire Tour 2024 in January with special guests Dylan Schneider and Aidan Canfield, join Morgan Wallen's One Night At A Time 2024 Tour, and return to perform at the Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California next April.
There are some good-looking guys in country music today, and actually, throughout the decades, we've seen some fine-looking hunks. There is something about holding a guitar in tight jeans and cowboy boots that is very attractive.
Many of today's country music stars work out and take their looks, along with their music, quite seriously. Some country stars are also just naturally lovely to look at. With some, it may be their personality that brings out those sexy vibes.
When Blake Shelton was crowned with the title of "Sexiest Man Alive" by People magazine in 2017, he told the publication, "Y'all must be running out of people, like, Wow, we're down to somebody who is somewhat symmetrical."
Shelton then put jokes aside and credited his then-girlfriend, Gwen Stefani, for convincing him to embrace the crown. He said she told him to listen to her and, "You're going to regret this for the rest of your life if you don't take this gift and just live in the moment."
Blake added at the time that he couldn't "wait to shove this up Adam's (Levine) a--." He noted that as proud as he was "honored" that the magazine asked him, he only cared about how his fellow Voice coach would react. He also insisted he had a few awkward phases while growing up. In describing myself as a child, he said one word comes to mind. "And that's fat." He joked, "People say I haven't changed since before I made it. And I'm still fat today. That's proof!"
It's pretty hard to narrow down who the sexiest men in country music are today, and we know we all have different definitions of sexy, but we dove in and shared what we believe are the eight sexiest men in country music right now.

8. Luke Bryan
Jason Kempin/Getty ImagesLuke has one of the best smiles in music, or TV, for that matter. His constant joy of doing what he loves to do comes out in every concert or TV performance, and that pure happiness can be very sexy. Bryan, along with his wife of almost 20 years, Caroline, and their family have so much fun in their busy lives and never miss an opportunity to laugh. His love and constant enjoyment of the outdoors, whether hunting, fishing, or lovin' everyday, also gives him a glow.
7. Sam Hunt
Noam Galai/Getty ImagesSam is a tall drink of water and mighty fine to look at. While he has always had rugged former football player goods looks, when he posts photos of himself with his toddler daughter Lucy Louise, he looks better than ever. Hunt is about to get even better looking as he and his wife Hannah are expecting their second child together soon.
6. Eric Church
Kevin Winter/Getty ImagesNo one shows more energy in concert than Eric does when he's playing for his massive "Church Choir" following. He has a crazed look and smile when he performs certain songs. He also jumps around the stage like the Energizer Bunny. When he donned his now trademark sunglasses with the release of his "Chief" album in 2011 that he wears whenever he performs, he upped his sexy game quite a bit. With long hair or even the buzz cut he is wearing now, Church is a sexy guy.
5. Morgan Wallen
Jason Davis/Getty ImagesMorgan's side grin is just adorable. When he smiles, he looks like a sweet kid who just got away with something. Wallen's appeal shines when he is playing for a stadium of fans. The way he interacts with his followers is sweet and quite sexy. He also seems so happy playing for fans as well as backstage when he snaps pictures with the few fans who get a chance to meet him and see his boyish grin up close.
4. Keith Urban
oy Rochlin/Getty ImagesThere's no doubt Keith is a sexy guy, and when he stands next to his wife, Nicole Kidman, on a red carpet, his looks really shine. The photos where he is looking adoringly at his wife are the best. And when he donned a tux and tails to accompany Nicole at the Met Gala earlier this year, he (as well as Nicole) was just stunning. Urban also never looks bad when he does what he does best: wailing on his guitar in concert.
3. Tim McGraw
Jason Kempin/Getty ImagesEven before Tim got into a healthy lifestyle of eating right and exercising daily, he has always looked good. His style brings him to the forefront of country music's sexiest men. With his perfect-fitting jeans, tight shirt, and even the way he wears his trademark cowboy hat, he's still quite hot at nearly 60 years old. Another thing about McGraw that we find irrisistable is his love for his wife of almost 27 years, Faith Hill.
2. Riley Green
Monica Schipper/Getty ImagesIn our opinion, this guy is just dreamy. If teen magazines covered country music, Riley would definitely be a centerfold. His rugged looks and unshaven, muscular frame set him apart from the pack in country music. He often shares shirtless photos and the like on his social media. Green comes in at number two on our list of country hunks, and only because number one is undeniable.
1. Blake Shelton
Ethan Miller/Getty ImagesBlake has always been a good-looking guy, and before he was on "The Voice" at an award show in 2010, actor Luke Wilson (who was presenting an award) came backstage and told the press room that Shelton had already "looked like a movie star." Blake shines when he talks about his crops at his Oklahoma farm with so much excitement. And next to wife Gwen Stefani, he looks better than ever. Also, anyone who was named People Magazine's "Sexiest Man Alive" has to top any list.
