Rising UK star Sam Fender is a rare talent. A 24-year-old working-class musician from the North who plays every gig as though it might well be his last, armed with this huge, cavernous vocal, guitar strapped on (a Fender, obviously), and fuelled by that seemingly old-school belief that great guitar music still has the power to change lives and influence people.

Sam Fender will be touring Australia for Splendour in the Grass in 2019 as well as headline shows in Sydney and Melbourne.
