Acclaimed Irish singer, songwriter, and harmonica virtuoso Paddy Smith has signed a worldwide distribution deal with Tribeca Records, the label announced today alongside the global release of his new album, Could Have Found Grace.
The partnership marks a significant expansion for Smith, a respected veteran of Ireland’s blues and rock scene whose reputation has been built over decades of live performance and a devoted following. Could Have Found Grace is now available to listeners worldwide for the first time, following earlier releases Let Those Blues In and The Devil’s Backyard.
The new album features an accomplished lineup of musicians, including Aongus Ralston (The Waterboys), Jason Duffy (The Corrs), James Delaney (Van Morrison, Rory Gallagher, Chuck Berry), and Danny Tobin, and explores themes of hardship, redemption, resilience, and hope.
The deal with Tribeca Records gives Smith global distribution infrastructure to match a catalog that has, until now, built its reputation primarily through word of mouth and live performance across Ireland’s blues and rock circuit.
“Could Have Found Grace is the most personal record I’ve made, and having Tribeca Records behind it means these songs finally get to reach the people they were written for, wherever they are,” said Paddy Smith.
