Sam Sly’s 80s inspired synth pop soundtracks the anxious, queer, gender-fluid experience, and its highs and lows. Sam’s music is the rush of gay panic, the ache of lesbian yearning, and the impending doom of anxiety.

Their music bursts with a euphoria that will make you want to spin around in the rain, drive rooftop down on the highway with your hair in the wind, hands off the wheel.

Whilst explosive in musicality, Sam Sly’s music is grounded with their warm toned, powerful voice. With similarities drawn between Sam to artists like MUNA, Chappell Roan, the 1975, and BENEE. This is music for feeling in every sense of the word.
