Nashville Talent Eliza Harrison Smith Closes the Year with Heartwarming Ballad ‘Got Away With It’

If you could pack the fragility and rawness of human experience into a single song, it would probably sound just like Eliza Harrison Smith’s latest effort, ‘Got Away With It’. The Nashville resident has been blessing us with incredible music since earlier this year, when her previous single ‘August’ kept us on our toes, making us define it as “the most refined, heartwarming and nostalgic banger you could ever think of. This is really great.” Standing by our words, we can confirm that its follow-up is nothing short of that. If ever, is a step up towards honest and heartfelt songwriting, achieving the two elements that make an artist worth following: technical prowess and lyrical authenticity. 

While ‘August’ was on the upbeat side, channelling nostalgia yet keeping it hopeful, latest single ‘Got Away With It’ explores more introspective territories, birthing a timeless, heartwrenching ballad that we are confident will resonate with many listeners out there. Written right after Eliza’s move to Nashville, the world’s songwriting capital, the song feels like the closing of a chapter and the opening of a new, brighter one. It marks a talented artist’s transformation into a special young adult, navigating her special musical qualities with surprising self-awareness. 

Lyrically, ‘Got Away With It’ focuses on a painful heartbreak experience. As described by Harrison Smith: “I wanted to capture the raw hurt and anger that you feel after a breakup, when you’re heartbroken and the other person seems perfectly fine.”
