Sam Smith has established themselves as one of the world’s most soulful voices and has topped the charts worldwide with hits including: Money on My Mind, Stay With Me, Writings on the Wall, Too Good at Goodbyes and 2018 dancefloor anthem Promises (with Calvin Harris).

Since the release of their 2014 debut album, “In The Lonely Hour”, Sam Smith has sold over 25 million adjusted albums worldwide and notched up an impressive seven UK No. 1 records to date. They have also been recognized at the highest level, earning four GRAMMY Awards, an Oscar, a Golden Globe and three BRIT Awards.

Sam’s visit comes off the back of a stellar 2019 in which they released global smash hits, How Do You Sleep? which has amassed close to 1 billion streams worldwide and early-2019 collaboration with Normani, “Dancing With A Stranger” which has reached almost 2 billion streams and became a No. 1 airplay hit in the U.S., Australia and the U.K.

One of the music industry’s most influential LGBTQI voices, Sam has used their platform to advocate for a broad spectrum of queer issues.

They have also been honoured for their contributions to the LGBTQI community with the award for Best Music Artist at the 2016 British LGBT Awards and a nomination for Outstanding Musical Artist at the 2018 GLAAD Media Awards.
