Sam Fender gave punters at North Shields' Low Lights Tavern a night to remember on Monday, when he performed at a buskers night, debuting a new track on home turf.
The last year has been another memorable one for the North Shields musician, with any amount of highlights, including a Brit win for Best Rock/Alternative, three years after being awarded the Critics' Choice accolade; a much applauded debut at Glastonbury; playing his biggest show to date at London's Finsbury Park and selling out Newcastle's Utilita Arena twice.
The coming 12 months also look set to be amazing, with the small matter of Sam and his band playing two packed gigs at St James' Park in June, after a massive scramble for tickets and the Seventeen Going Under star getting to open for his musical idol, Bruce Springsteen, in Italy.
