Sam Scherdel – Hallamshire Hotel

Blending heartland grit with widescreen indie ambition, Scherdel delivers raw honesty, huge choruses, and cinematic energy, channelling Bruce Springsteen with the soul of Paolo Nutini and Ray LaMontagne. A relentless live performer, he’s built a loyal fanbase through sold-out shows and festival stages across the UK, with Somewhere in the Middle taking him past one million streams since its release in October 2025.

Having supported Two Door Cinema Club, Ocean Colour Scene, and Embrace, Scherdel’s live shows balance intimacy and release, stripped-back moments giving way to full-band intensity, built on connection rather than spectacle.

This isn’t hype. It’s years of graft finally catching fire, and a live show built to be felt, not scrolled past.
