Sam Fender has revealed the video for his newest single "That Sound," which is off his forthcoming debut EP Dead Boys, out this Monday, November 20 through Polydor Records. The video was directed by Tim Mattia and you can watch it here:
The last 18-months has seen Fender releasing a handful of singles whose lyrics tackle hard-hitting subjects of social importance and generational significance. They are broadly drawn from his experiences growing up in NE England. The content is significant, and wrapped in rousing, propulsive, arena-sized anthems. He was featured on the BBC Sound of 2018 shortlist and is just finishing a sold-out, headlining tour of the UK (remaining dates below).
His penchant for taking on serious matters is highlighted with the "Dead Boys" single which centers on the growing problem of male suicide around the world. The track is raw in its delivery and topic. He recently performed the single on "Later...with Jools Holland" - watch here. Watch the video for "Dead Boys" here:
