CRAIG LUCAS & PAXTON – SMOTHER

WINNERS OF THE VOICE AND IDOLS COLLABORATE

“The inspiration behind the single stems from being so in love with someone, that you ignore that fact that they are hurting you. It comes from being in a toxic relationship, when you build your life around someone and you are willing to accept all the shit as long as you can be with the person. The person in the song is so deep in that he is willing to put up with being cheated on and being treated badly as long as he can be with his love.”

Craig followed Paxton’s journey on Idols and sent her a message to let her know he was a fan. They also both hail from Cape Town, with Craig from Elsies River, and Paxton around the corner from Bishop Lavis.

SMOTHER GOES STRAIGHT TO NUMBER ONE!

The song reached number one on the iTunes pop charts within a matter of days and subsequently to #1 on KFM last weekend. The chart topper was announced to the pair as they came off stage following their performance at Kday together.

The reality-show twosome have recently also shared the stage at the annual Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra concert in February and again at the prestigious Starlight Classics Concert at Vergelegen Estate, backed by RMB’s CPO.

Together, Craig and Paxton bring two of the most beautiful voices and appear to be an unstoppable force as individuals and as a collective.
