The track is from the artist’s introspective and thoughtful new album Poetry in Exile
With the release of his brand new single ‘Don’t Be a Fool’, tenured UK singer-songwriter Andy Smythe continues to establish his distinctive charm and thoughtful songwriting, exploring themes like betrayal, renewal, and re-evaluating your life in a post-covid landscape and having to reshape and recreate yourself.
The track is the final single from the artist’s new album Poetry in Exile, an album that delves into the human condition and the post-covid landscape in a broader sense. Andy’s DIY approach and the weight of his words have a real feeling of authenticity and honesty to them, with the artist playing all of the instruments on the track and concept album and writing all of the introspective and often dark lyrics. ‘Don’t Be a Fool’ is a really great glimpse of an album that truly needs to be heard in its entirety thanks to the artist’s optimistic and relatable message that hits close to home in 2024, with the artist hoping to spread hope and healing through his words.
