“Check out Will Sid Smith on the Internet... He is as ambitious as he is talented... It is all a matter of time before he hits it big... Just remember you first read about him in Punk Globe.. ”

— Ginger Coyote, Punk Globe Magazine

“Urban Country bounces into life with jungle drums and a bouncing bass-line with Will Sid Smith's excellent, fresh voice cutting through. This track sounds a bit like John Mayer but a bit more fun and a little less world-weary. Although this precocious teenager is actually singing about wanting to escape suburban city life and get out into the country where he can see the stars at night. A clever little piano line comes in on the second chorus, there is also a really good breakdown that gives a fresh perspective on the track later on. The bass guitar (must be a Fender!) is rich and light at the same time & along with the drums keeps Urban Country moving along beautifully. Well produced, well written and really well sung this was our track of the week because it blends bits of country and bits of pop and twists it into something unique & modern sounding. Like Charlie Law's winner from last week "One Step" it is ridiculously catchy. A brilliant song and a great winner for week 3!”

— Tiger Flynn, Red Stag Management

“Will’s EP, 29, falls into that generalised genre of Pop music (albeit with a touch of acoustica) but is by no means bubble-gum pop! The lyrics are soundly based and the introduction from the first few acoustic bars into a more formalised electric/percussive arrangement gives his tracks a certain edge. It is often hard, as a relative newcomer, to find a decent opening track, yet alone write one, but Will has placed “tonight’ in the forefront; luckily for him, this is a sound choice and draws one into the rest of the mini album. It would be amiss of me not to mention the arrangement of Urban Country, especially with regard to that percussion-very strong, rhythmic and all embracing. Overall, a great start for Will.”

— Tony Bates, Indigo FM
