In autumn 2018, Podsiadło released his third solo album – Małomiasteczkowy (Provincial or Small-town). It was produced by Bartosz Dziedzic who was also responsible for the sound of Artur Rojek’s Składam Się Z Ciągłych Powtórzeń, Monika Brodka’s Granda and Lech Janerka’s Plagiaty. The single promoting the record was released in May 2018. In a month, the song had over 7 million views on YouTube. The album was also appreciated by the jury of Polityka magazine’s Paszporty award and, in 2019, won in the Entertainment Music category.
In an interview with Jarosław Szubrycht, Podsiadło said:
Small-town is considered to be a derogatory word, which, in my song, is presented in a favourable, positive, and tender way. Many people write to me proudly: "Dawid, I’m also from a small town and this song made my day, it was easier for me to smile at people on the street".
Among Podsiadło’s guest appearances on other records, the ones most worth noting are in the songs from the singer Karolina Kozak (Homemade, 2012), rappers Taco Hemingway (Wosk, 2016) and Ten Typ Mes (Ała, 2016) and the rap-duo Taconafide (Soma 0,25 mg, 2018). The song titled Nikt, recorded with the band Bitamina, appeared on the compilation Heartbreaks & Promises Vol. 4 by Flirtini (2018). Podsiadło’s song 4:30 appeared on the soundtrack for the film Stones for the Rampart directed by Robert Gliński in 2014.
Dawid Podsiadło has performed at Poland’s biggest festivals: Open’er in Gdynia, Live Music in Kraków and on the National Festival of Polish Song in Opole. Just a few weeks after his debut, he supported Lana Del Rey before her concert in Warsaw.
Podsiadło often appears in commercials. His image has been used by brands such as Play (Polish mobile network operator), Johnnie Walker and the bank Credit Agricole.
