SAM FENDER - People Watching Deluxe Edition Vinyl

Sam Fender has announced the deluxe version of ‘People Watching’ will be released December 5th.

In addition to the four tracks that originally featured on Sam’s limited edition Record Store Day vinyl-only Me and The Dog EP, three brand new, previously unheard tracks also feature: Talk To You (feat. Elton John), Fortuna’s Wheel, and Treadmill. The extra recordings also feature “Rein Me In (with Olivia Dean)” for its first physical release. The February 2025 release of People Watching sent Sam Fender supernova and right up into the higher echelons of recent British success stories.

Selling over 100,000 copies of the record in its first week in the UK alone, People Watching outsold the rest of the top 10 combined becoming the fastest selling album by a British solo artist since Spring 2022. Its release was followed by a slew of sold out stadium dates in the Summer, including the 80,000 London Stadium.

Arriving back in the UK from another US run for last night’s Mercury Prize (his second Mercury nomination), Sam’s ready to see out the rest of the year sharing these new tracks with fans before turning his attention to writing and recording People Watching’s eventual follow-up.
