The Seventeen Going Under hitmaker released his second album last year. Before that, he rose to prominence with songs such as Hypersonic Missiles, Will We Talk and Dead Boys.

In 2018, the singer earned a spot on the BBC’s Sound Of 2018 list alongside Billie Eilish and Lewis Capaldi and secured a deal with Polydor. This came after the release of his debut single Play God in 2017.

Since then, he has had the chance to open for music legends such as Neil Young and Bob Dylan at Hyde Park as well as a personal invitation from Elton John to play his AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Party. Elton John actually joined Fender onstage at the party for a rendition of Fender’s song Will We Talk?.

Sam Fender's Malahide Castle gigs is just one of the hotly anticipated outdoor concerts that is scheduled to take place in the north Dublin park next year. Also playing the venue will be Florence + The Machine, Depeche Mode and Arctic Monkeys.
