Sam’s upcoming debut EP, Pop Goes the Human is a poignant and honest reflection on truth, madness and what it means to be human.
“I found myself in a place I dubbed No Man’s Land — disassociated from people, my art and myself. Pop Goes the Human tells the story of my journey through and ultimately out of that dark, confusing and profound chapter of my life.”
