Every once in a while a new artist comes along with a song that has such a memorable hook, you can't help to sing it long after the tune plays on the radio.  Canaan Smith is that singer and "Love You Like That" is the song you've been hearing on the Hawk.

Canaan is 32 years old, originally from historic Williamsburg, Virginia and later moved to Nashville to study at Belmont University.  If he looks somewhat familiar to you it may be because you recognize him from the reality show "The Amazing Race," where he appeared on the 15th season with his girlfriend at the time, Mika Combs.  Congrats!

According to TasteofCountry.com, Canaan was engaged to Christy Hardesty earlier last year.  Things are finally happening for this talented singer-songwriter and you can get a taste of his sound with his new music video, "Love You Like That."
