Myles Smith: My Mess, My Heart, My Life review | Alexis Petridis's album of the week

British singer Myles Smith is releasing his debut album, My Mess, My Heart, My Life, this Friday via RCA. The Stargazing hitmaker, who won the rising star award at the 2025 Brits, admits to being at his limit. His musical style is heavily influenced by Ed Sheeran, Coldplay, and Mumford Sons, reflecting his early days at open mic nights. Smith even utilises a small-scale acoustic guitar, a trademark of Sheeran, who remains one of his biggest influences.
