Sam Tompkins Vinyl Records
Combining heart-on-sleeve lyrical immediacy with laid-back R&B pop stylings, this East Sussex, England-born singer/songwriter spent his formative years busking before Island Records signed him in 2019. Often switching between a soulful falsetto and an earthier delivery of lines about day-to-day urban life by switching accents, Tompkins' vocal style clearly displayed his southern English roots.
