Last Friday, Plain Mister Smith’s latest track ‘Miss Sunshine’ was released via Amelia Records/Symphonic, setting the stage for more singles ahead of his 2026 album. Splitting time between Vancouver and London, this guy’s resume is stacked—ex-guitarist for darkwave crew Moev and a current cellist for the Vancouver Philharmonic Orchestra. His indie-folk vibes have earned props from outlets like CLASH Magazine, NOTION, Under The Radar, Earmilk, METAL, Noctis Mag, and Atwood Mag, proving he’s got serious cred.
With John Raham laying down the drum tracks and Chris Perry handling the mix, ‘Miss Sunshine’ blends catchy guitar riffs and a steady beat into a warm, inviting sound. It’s a nod to influences like Pixies, Tame Impala, Death Cab for Cutie, and The Beatles, while keeping things light and playful. The lyrics unpack admiration and empathy—maybe even a crush—for someone getting the short end of the stick, all wrapped in Plain Mister Smith’s smooth, sincere delivery.
Plain Mister Smith revealed: “If you’ve ever worked with the loveliest person in the world and found them mercilessly taken advantage of by fellow workers, then you’ll know a ‘Miss Sunshine’, or you may even have a crush on her.” It’s a sentiment that grounds the song in real emotion, making it a standout for anyone who’s been there.
