Description
Sam Beeton is a 26 year old British singer-songwriter and musician. His first album, No Definite Answer, was released in 2008 after he was signed to RCA Records by then MD Craig Logan in 2006. Sam was nominated for the Best Pop Act at the BT Digital Music Awards in 2009, being narrowly beaten Kylie Minogue. Very much the rising star, Sam has supported The Script, Sandi Thom, James Morrison, Scouting for Girls and Charlie Simpson on full UK tours and has also completed headline UK tours in his own right. Sam's first single 'What You Look For' had an unprecedented run as "record of the week" on the two shows Jo Whiley and Scott Mills of BBC Radio One consecutively. Sam has co-written for other artists with Eg White, Guy Chambers, Fraser T Smith, Max Martin, Ed Harcourt and One Direction. After his spell at RCA Sam moved to go direct-to-fan and created his own, innovative approach - a monthly "Record Club", through which subscribers received his latest songs on CD. Sam also modelled for the British fashion label Burberry, and Christopher Bailey, Burberry's creative director, asked Sam to perform for their acclaimed Burberry Acoustic video sessions. His 'My Doll' session became so popular that Burberry asked him to perform a second which was previously unheard of. 'Storyteller' was recorded in March 2012 and was also performed on the BBC2 Review show. Sam's supporters include Katy Perry who saw a show and likened him to Jeff Buckley and Paul Simon, James Morrison who he has toured with twice, Danny O' Donahue from The Script, Ed Sheeran who supported Sam on his 2012 tour, Huw Stephens with whom Sam did an old vinyl factory session seminar, Jake Bugg who has been to several shows, Caggie Dunlop and Amber Atherton (Made In Chelsea) Sam has also featured in the Top 5 most viewed Burberry Acoustic Sessions with almost 500,000 for his song 'My Doll' along with Marika Hackman, Keane and Misty Miller. In 2013 Sam was re-united with co-producer of his debut album Chris Bucknell and they began working on sessions for what was to become the new album 'In The Yard'
