Sam Calver Shares Stunning New Single ‘River’
Hastings born singer-songwriter Sam Calver is back with a stunning new single titled River, the fourth and final offering to be taken from his upcoming EP, HOME, set to arrive on May 22nd!
Produced by British songwriting and production team Red Triangle (Lukas Graham, James Arthur, Emeli Sandé), River was written soon after the birth of his firstborn child and shares a message of affinity and kinship between father and son at its core. River is inspired by that unconditional love and is an ode to the people and experiences that mean the most to us. You can really feel that love pouring from his passionate vocal delivery, beautifully infusing the listener with a powerful dose of emotion. I am really fond of the tone of his vocals and how his honest storytelling gets us thinking about those that mean the most to us. River is backed by a lush production packed with intricate acoustic guitar riffs, punchy percussion and an anthemic chorus that got stuck to my head after the very first listen. It was Sam's stunning vocal performance that drew me towards this song and its heartfelt lyrics and intimate atmosphere sealed the deal for me. River is a stunning song about unconditional love with lush guitar melodies and powerful vocal delivery and I think you guys will love it too. Check it out below!
Speaking about the song, Sam Calver said,
‘River’ is a classic love song but written from a place I have never found myself in before…Fatherhood”. Written in only 45 minutes, it poured out of me like it had already been written in my head. I hope listeners can find their loved ones in this song too and relate to it. This was the first song for me that changed my approach to songwriting, coming from an honest and heartfelt place. I will be forever proud of this song.
