Easy on the eyes and hot on the radio, Sam Sparro is fast becoming one of the most in demand acts around having gained support from DJs Jo Whiley and Pete Tong with his infectious funky electro soul sound. After he seduced the nation with his summertime hit 'Black and Gold' taken from his self-titled debut album, he continues his attack on the U.K charts with latest single '21st Century Life'.
Since his singing talent was discovered at the tender age of 10, Sparro's career has gone from strength to strength. From the moment he accompanied his father to a church where he met with incredible vocalists (who had performed with the likes of Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston) to the knock out live shows he delivered at this summer's festivals, this 25-year-old holds one impressive CV. Child actor, producer, songwriter, international style icon... the list is endless.
Integrating fashion into a unique sound that fuses soul, house, gospel and electrofunk, Sparro has smashed the typical singer songwriter mold to pieces. As inspired by Jeremy Scott and Gareth Pugh as he is by SWV and Hot Chip, this cutting edge performer offers not only an aural delight, but a visual one too. Catch him as he hits Newcastle this month as part of his biggest U.K tour to date.
