Samm Henshaw

Heart-on-sleeve soul gets a technicolour glow with Samm Henshaw. The London-born, Nigerian singer-songwriter has a knack for turning raw feeling into big, joyful sound, sliding from tender croons to full-bodied choruses that hit you right in the chest. Blending soul, R&B, indie and funk, Henshaw first caught ears with ‘Only Wanna Be With You’, before ‘How Does It Feel?’, ‘Broke’ and fan favourite ‘Grow’ propelled him onto global playlists and sold-out stages. Praised by many for his “warm yet rough-hewn voice”, his latest album It Could Be Worse channels heartbreak into something hopeful, cathartic and alive.
