Samuel Thomas Fender is an English singer, songwriter, and musician. He is known for his high tenor voice and strong Geordie accent, layered over music characterised by a roots-orientated rock approach.
Fender was born and grew up in North Shields. He found his vocation as a singer-songwriter around 14 and subsequently released several singles independently, being named one of the BBC’s Sounds of 2018.
His second album Seventeen Going Under was released in October 2021, topped the UK Albums Chart, and spawned the UK hit single “Seventeen Going Under”. In 2022, Fender received the Brit Award for Best British Alternative/Rock Act and the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically.
How do you get your hair like Sam Fender?
- To get the same look as Sam Fender, ask your barber for a long fringe that skims your eyebrows.
- You could opt for a fade on the sides, leaving the top layered, disconnected and at least layers 3 inches long.
- On freshly washed damp hair, spritz on a texturising sea salt spray or pre-styler if you want more volume or texture.
- Leave to dry naturally for the undone, casual look that Sam favours.
- Use your hands (not a comb) to style your fringe.
- You could use a touch of wax to keep the texture in place all day.
