Sam Fender today releases his third album, the critically acclaimed People Watching. It follows 2021’s chart-topping Seventeen Going Under and is released via Polydor Records. Listen now.

Now solidified as one of Britain’s most accomplished songwriters of his generation and the next, if Seventeen Going Under was Sam’s “coming of age” record, People Watching is his next step forward - colourful stories and observations of everyday characters living their everyday, but often extraordinary, lives.
