British rising star Nia Smith has just released an updated version of her debut EP, “Give Up The Fear (+3),” following the successful release of the original.
The reimagined EP includes three brand new tracks—a stripped-back acoustic version of “Personal,” an alternative version of “Reckless Soul” enriched with fuller instrumentation, and an acoustic cover of Lauryn Hill’s classic “Ex-Factor.”
The updated EP follows an impressive year for Nia Smith, whose work has earned widespread acclaim from critics and fans alike. Her achievements have also been further bolstered by standout live performances, including opening for Jordan Rakei at The Royal Albert Hall, touring across the US and UK with Elmiene, and captivating audiences on the “Later with Jools Holland” stage.
Working with an esteemed team that includes Ed Thomas, Violet Skies, and Jimmy Napes, Nia has crafted a project that reflects her unique musical identity and personal growth. The EP’s tracklist—featuring songs like “Reckless Soul (alt version),” “Ex-Factor,” “Personal (acoustic),” “Little Red Car,” “Give Up The Fear,” “Reckless Soul (demo),” “Personal,” and “Don’t Cry“—offers a rich tapestry of sounds and emotions that resonates with listeners.
