Sam and the Womp have created quite a stir in recent months following attention-grabbing sets at the likes of Bestival, Big Chill, Glastonbury and Lovebox, as well as substantial airplay and famous fans such as Rizzle Kicks and Example.

Consisting of de facto band leader and chief rabble-rouser Sam who punches out the horn riffs, the sultry vocals and feline moves of vocalist Lady Oo and the enigmatic musical alchemist Aaron Audio, Sam and the Womp prioritise the party as they break free of conventional genres. As Audio says, “You can call our music a lot of things, but it’s essentially just musicians writing songs. I don’t think we’ve worked out exactly what it is, but that’s part of the journey and part of the fun. We’re not about destruction or politics or anything like that, we’re about dreaming about a beautiful reality with love and music.”
