Data Insight

Peter Fenn is on almost every line of this record: eleven writing credits, fourteen production credits, and piano, guitar, bass, synthesizer, banjo, mandolin, drums and programming across the fifteen tracks. Smith writes on all fifteen and alone on none. The widest credits are “Hate You” and “Mary’s Song” at seven writers each, and the outliers are “Dublin Lights”, where Ed Sheeran and Steve Mac appear without performing, and “Stay (If You Wanna Dance)”, the one track Fenn has nothing to do with.

My Mess, My Heart, My Life. is the debut studio album by Myles Smith, released on 19 June 2026 through It's Okay to Feel and Sony UK. Fifteen tracks run 46 minutes. It reached number 2 on the UK Albums Chart and collects 'Stargazing' and 'Nice to Meet You', both hits well before the album existed. Niall Horan features on 'Drive Safe'.
