Sam and Sounds shares emotion-drenched new single ‘Weird Day’

Crawley’s indie pop superstar Sam and Sounds has returned with a change of pace on new cut ‘Weird Day’. 

The ICM Awards 2020 Greatest Discovery nominee and Ones To Watch 2021 artist, has been on a hot streak of releases since Sam’s debut last year and continues to impress with ‘Weird Day’. 

Pairing the warm sounds of a ukulele with Sam’s pitch-perfect vocals, the track is an enchanting love song that sees the Surrey-born artist serenade the special girl in his life. 

It marks his second single release in quick succession, following January’s ‘Silly’. He just can’t put a foot wrong at the moment. 

“‘Weird Day’ was, at first, meant to just be a song about liking sleep!” Sam explains. “But it turned into a much deeper concept. The idea that dreams might be the only way of being with someone you love really appealed to me.

 He continues: “For me personally, the meaning of the song was driven by not being able to meet up with or hold and hug my girlfriend during the national lockdowns caused by the pandemic. 

“However, I’ve since realised that the lyrics to the song could well represent different situations to so many people.”

Sam and Sounds continues to be a name that keeps popping up in your head. His hot streak with another emotion-drenched single, 2021 is destined to be the breakout year for Sam and Sounds.
