Sam Robson

Sam Robson is a twenty-three year old musical prodigy and multi instrumentalist who is the son of classically trained violinist parents – his father plays in the London Symphony Orchestra. After finding trouble settling into mainstream education it became clear to him that music was the desired path. At this point he discovered the Brit School from where he would eventually graduate with distinction, immediately showing himself to be an exceptional student and winning their prestigious competition for song writing in his second year. At the Brits School he studied with the hugely successful act Rizzle Kicks, whom he supported regularly at live shows in their formative years.  He also wrote, recorded, produced and arranged for many of the students at the school, building a studio in his parent’s house that often accommodated all-night full band recordings. As well as being an accomplished guitarist and drummer Sam has always been fascinated with the voice as an instrument in its own right, and a cappella has been a natural vehicle for him in that regard. He has created versions of s Mirrorball – which after its upload to YouTube was mentioned by the band’s singer Guy Garvey, during their tour of the United States – and a version of the theme tune for TV show Family Guy, which was broadcast on BBC TV prior to an episode. Always experimenting with arrangement and musicality, Sam has created nine-part harmony versions of some of his favourite hymns that he originally posted on his YouTube channel; these songs have now received combined views well in excess of two million hits from all over the world.
