Sam Fender Announces New Album ‘People Watching’
Sam Fender is pleased to announce details of his highly anticipated third album, People Watching.
People Watching is released 21st February 2025 via Polydor Records. Sam produced his record alongside bandmates Dean Thompson and Joe Atkinson over two years, working firstly in London in 2023 with producer Markus Dravs, and then earlier this year in Los Angeles with The War on Drugs’ Adam Granduciel, a musician Sam has a long-standing admiration for.
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.
The album cover photograph (below) was shot by the renowned social documentary photographer Tish Murtha, who grew up in South Shields and documented marginalised communities and working-class life in Newcastle upon Tyne.
Sam Fender’s observations on life as he experiences them have already taken him to headlining Summer festivals (Reading & Leeds, Boardmasters), selling out stadiums, and becoming a bonafide household name. With the instant sell-out of his UK arena tour next month (140,000+ tickets), Sam takes another mighty leap forward into whatever comes next.
