Samm Henshaw

With nimble vocal runs, a booming register, steeple-size range, and fiery fresh fusion of gospel, soul, and pop, UK singer/songwriter Samm Henshaw has all the makings of a bold and bright breaking superstar. Born in London, Henshaw was raised by Nigerian parents, honing his love for Gospel and American soul in a church pastored by his father. With his 2016 breakout debut The Sound Experiment EP and its follow up The Sound Experiment 2, he’s established himself as an inspiring new channeler of soul, coalescing his signature sound around filaments of pop, hip hop, gospel, and R&B.

Hand-picked by Chance the Rapper and James Bay to support their live treks, he’s also spent the past 2 years working and touring with the likes of Pharrell, Rag’n’Bone Man, and Maverick Sabre before hitting the U.S. at the beginning of the summer for well-received showcases kicking off his stateside debut. His steady ascent has been chronicled by The Guardian and The Independent, with Henshaw also being cited as “One To Watch” by Spotify, Teen Vogue, Google, GQ, and others.
