Singer, songwriter and newly anointed household name of the United Kingdom Sam Ryder, blew the socks off roughly 161 million viewers when he took to the stage on 14 May 2022 at Turin's PalaOlimpico for the Eurovision Song Contest.

His debut album There's Nothing But Space, Man! is a catalogue of infectious pop energy that soared to the number 1 spot in 2022. Having received his first ever BRIT Award nomination for Breakthrough artist and closing out the BRIT Awards 2023.

Since SPACE MAN gave the United Kingdom its best Eurovision result since 1998 and the highest-charting UK Eurovision entry in over quarter of a century, Sam has since soundtracked many of the pivotal moments in entertainment of recent years from Eurovision to the Queen’s Jubilee, Wembley Stadium, the Formula 1 Grand Prix at Silverstone and the National Television Awards and Capital’s Jingle Bell Ball.
