Joining us today is a singer and songwriter who’s gone from living paycheck to paycheck while posting cover videos online to Eurovison success and playing Wembley alongside bona fide rock legends. It’s the joyous Sam Ryder!


Ahead of the release of his sophomore album and headline show at Wembley Arena, he talks about how he survived on “crumbs of comfort” from his early days in the music scene while struggling through difficult jobs. Consistently doing things for the right reasons was eventually rewarded as he graduated from doing weddings - something he still loves - to playing stadiums, his Glastonbury debut and celebrated performances around the world. Despite the success, Sam remains the same humble, joyous soul he was before the deserved accolades that have come his way in recent years.
