Sam MacPherson

Sam MacPherson infuses each lyric and melody with tangible detail. Through a nuanced approach and unclouded lens, the New Jersey-born and Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist delves into the quietest moments of a tense goodbye or pans across the trepidation of a torrid, yet doomed relationship in his songs. This unfiltered honesty has quietly affirmed him as a notable artist on the ascent, with tens of millions of streams and views, as well as a dedicated following of fans. His vision only crystallizes on his major label debut EP with Elektra Records, Powerlines (out Friday, April 14), and much more to come. “I write from inside the moment,” he observes. “I put myself back into those memories and think about what I was feeling. I try to bend and push the form of pop music as far as I can with visceral and visual storytelling. I want you to feel like you’re inside of my songs with me.” Hailing from Red Bank, Sam absorbed the no-nonsense New Jersey spirit from his surroundings, while his songwriter father gave him a love for music. He spun records by the likes of The Beatles and Rolling Stones, while his mom introduced him to Motown icons such as Sam Cooke and Stevie Wonder. Of course, the spirit of Jersey’s own Bruce Springsteen crept into his subconscious as well. How could it not?
