Sam Tompkins Shares New Single ‘See Me’
Fast rising alt-pop trailblazer Sam Tompkins returns with a relatable, heartfelt gem called See Me.
Out today via Island Records, See Me finds the talented artist using music as a way to take on his darkest insecurities, twisting his sometimes uncomfortable memories to address his inner demons with a relatable honesty and vulnerability that shines through. I adore his voice and how passionate and heartfelt his vocal delivery is, instantly giving me the feels and connecting me to his relatable storytelling. A song from the heart that takes on mental health, bad relationship and lingering feelings of self-deprecation, See Me is wrapped around a polished pop production that pairs intricate acoustic guitars with a memorable beat, lush strings and atmospherics that create an overall warm and intimate atmosphere perfect for a reflective day home alone.
Speaking about the song, Sam Tompkins said,
It’s like I’d needed to write it my whole life. I’m glad I have now, and hoping others can now resonate with it. This song stems back to last year in a pretty dark time in my life. I had a conversation with my life coach about how insecure I was becoming, constantly fearing how I was being perceived by others. After a long emotional conversation, we had worked out and pinpointed a pretty sad moment from when I was a kid at school and how I have carried it ever since. So much so that I had internalised that comment and begun to believe it.
