Timeless (Dallas Smith album)

Timeless is the fourth solo studio album by Canadian country singer Dallas Smith, and was released through 604 Records on August 28, 2020.

Background
Smith told Parton and Pearl after releasing The Fall, "I honestly just looked at that chunk of music as something individually". He then began to work on a second EP when he "got a sense of the record taking shape". Smith said "As far as a record and listening to it front to back I knew what was missing and how I wanted this chapter to be represented".

While Smith recorded the vocals of the previously-released tracks in Nashville, Tennessee with longtime producer Joey Moi, restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic forced Smith to record vocals for the rest of the album at his home in Langley, British Columbia. Smith said he hoped to release "timeless country music" in "uncertain times".

Content
The album contains twelve songs in total and includes all six songs from his previously released, Juno Award-nominated extended play, The Fall. Five singles: "Make 'Em Like You", "Rhinestone World", "Drop", "Timeless", and "Like a Man" were released prior to the album and each one reached number one on the Billboard Canada Country chart, breaking a record that Smith previously set for most number ones on a Canadian country album with his third album, Side Effects. The album features collaborations with fellow Canadian country artists Dean Brody and MacKenzie Porter as well as American country rock artist Hardy. The latter collaboration, "Some Things Never Change" was sent to country radio as the sixth single off the album, and would extend Smith's record to six number one singles from the same album.
