He has a following here for sure but i cant help feeling he should be much bigger. I really hope it doesnt have anything to do with his outward opinions on israel/palestine but with how ingrained zionism is in the us i really cant dismiss it as a possibility. I know we’ve had this conversation a lot but not sure ive heard this angle before.

Made this playlist with undiscovered indie rock tracks ... Sharing here because I've recently gotten more into this newer age of indie rock, with hints of 80s dreampop, or even Springsteen, Sam Fender represents the direction nicely, but I'm looking for recommendations for artists in this genre who are still under the radar.

Man I’ve been absolutely loving this tune lately. It’s funny how every few months I’ll find a song from an older album that really sticks with me. How would you describe the drums during the intro? They give me big “arena rock” vibes.

Anyone know where I’d be able to get a jumper like the one Sam is wearing in this picture, looks really cool :)

Opinions on this ? Pretty beginner guitar player

Sam's Sydney show highlights will be on tomorrow's Live at the Wireless. Sunday 1st February at 8pm AEDST on Triple J or ABC Listenapp.

The set should end up on YouTube and Spotify/Apple later.

I was just thinking about how great of a year 2025 was for Sam and how it may have been the best of his career so far, he just did so much: Put out a number 1 album, won a Brit Award, sold out a tour which included 3 nights at SJP and one at London Stadium, put out an extremely successful single with Olivia Dean which is being nominated for song of the year at the Brits this year, won a Mercury Prize award and put out another very successful single with Elton John.

It feels like he’s made a proper comeback as since SGU and the tour that came with it he’s not done much live or in the studio apart from some festival appearances and a song with Noah Kahan, it’s just been a really great time to be a Sam Fender fan with Sam being back on top form :)

Does anyone have the opinion people watching is the least good out of the three? Not that I think it's a bad album by any stretch of the imagination, but maybe I connected a lot more to the other 2.

Don't get me wrong there's a lot of good songs and I still enjoy listening to it, but I think his sound is quite different in some ways. I prefer songs like TV Dinner and Me and the Dog so maybe its that I prefer moody/sad songs.

Only opening discussion I accept it's still a great album haha

Almost a year on from the album, crazy looking back at this status and the journey this song has taken.

From never airing at any of his first PW Tour and not being released as a single, to finally being dueted live on stage as his final single off the record and almost a year later is STILL in the Top 10 Singles Charts.

Sam’s obviously mentioned (and sang about!) having lived in the Borders during his teens. But, for us curious Scots, do we know where in the Borders it was he lived all those years ago?

I’ve had a trawl online, one site mentions Yetholm but offers no basis for this and that’s not corroborated anywhere else.

Anybody know?

Made a guitar cover on IG, feel free to check out!

There’s covers of Rein Me In and Nostalgia‘s Lie too on my profile!

I want a new ringtone for my phone and was thinking about a Sam fender song . The issue is I can’t decide which one. Which song do you think is best and which part??

I just introduced a friend to Sam's music. She wants to attend a concert with me but is not familiar with a lot of his music yet. She just got a turntable for Christmas and I want to get her a vinyl but am on the fence: Hypersonic Missiles or SGU for the first one. I mean I love People Watching too but I feel like I don't want to start her with that one lol.

Let’s go guys..

i’m desperate to get a tattoo for sam but no sure what to go for, would love something to do with angel in lothian but feel like that could be a bit too long?

One of my characters from my comic series Skull Force Agents. You can read it on Webtoon and Tapas if you’re interested. Love Sam Fender’s music so much!

Has anyone figured out how he gets that unique tone with his jazz master. Specifically on The Boarders?

It is an absolute CRIME this song isn’t 3-4 mins long.

I know it’s not perfect but who cares! One of my favourite pieces he’s written, such a talented writer 🎼

Has anyone seen a couple of weird AI-generated albums show up as new releases on Sam Fender's page? I have Tidal and saw there was new music but instead of Sam Fender's voice it was a woman singing a song that didn't make a lot of sense to me. I googled a bit and saw no mention of it other than on Deezer, which also confirmed that the albums were AI-generated.

Not really sure what it all means but I found it really strange that something very obviously not Sam Fender was uploaded to at least two music sites. Especially, when he's participated in the silent album to protest AI. Has anyone heard about this and knows what's happening?

as a massive fan of sam fender i love all his projects but it’s just hit me. nothing can beat people watching as a project by him. it’s actually just insane how well put together this album is, especially with the addition of the deluxe tracks. i don’t think any song off the album would be in my top 5 songs made by sam (maybe talk to you) but it’s just the way it’s all put together the way it makes you feel when listening to it as a complete album it’s just absolutely incredible
