UK-based talent, Sam Smith’s stand-out vocal performance on one of 2012’s biggest tracks, Disclosure’s ‘Latch’ cemented his place as one of 2013’s most exciting artists to watch.
Sam’s debut solo track, ‘Lay Me Down’, a heartfelt and poignant track that underlines Sam’s completely unique and powerful vocal was swiftly followed by a stripped back acoustic version of ‘Latch’ released earlier this month. So far Sam has gathered support from Annie Mac and Zane Lowe at Radio 1 as well as receiving playlist on 1Xtra and outstanding praise from the likes of Pitchfork.
