MORE ABOUT US
www.thesamwillows.com
The Sam Willows are a Singaporean indie-folk quartet of siblings Benjamin and Narelle Kheng, and their friends Sandra Riley Tang and Jon Chua, who burst onto the scene in the middle of 2012 with what Singapore's leading broadsheet, The Straits Times, described as a group with "lush, multi-part, girl-boy melodies and breezy and soulful acoustic pop tunes".
Their first EP of original songs (which is available at thesamwillows.c...) was released in October 2012 and made the top 10 local iTunes charts and top 50 albums sold on iTunes Pop Charts Singapore. In slightly over a year, The Sam Willows' RUclips account has drawn close to 524,000 views with their mixture of unique covers and fresh originals.
The Sam Willows are the first Singaporean band to be named leading Singapore young adult hit radio station 987FM's Rising Star, alongside international acts like Birdy and Ed Sheeran. They have won the m:idea Youth Choice Award 2013 in the band category by popular vote. Separately, they were selected to have a song recorded and produced by 5 time Grammy Award winning producer, Steve Lillywhite, CBE. *Glasshouse (Lillywhite Edition) that was released in July 2013!
The Sam Willows are currently the youngest Singaporean music act ever invited to play two prominent North American Music Festivals - South by Southwest Music Festival in Austin, Texas, (named SXSW 2013 - Freshman Favourite by review site Operation Every Band) and the Canadian Music Festival in Toronto, Ontario. Their North American tour also covered Los Angeles, where they played at venues including Villain's Tavern and The Roxy - On the Rox.

To be honest, it was really a shame to only get to know you guys only during the RUclips Stars concert where I was so impressed by the vibes you guys gave when performing live.

Here's my essay to why I'm INLOVE WITH THE SAM WILLOWS . Here goes(;
I have absolutely no idea who The Sam Willows is until I went for the Under The Stars: RUclips Sensation. And the first time I heard you guys are like made in Singapore (from Singapore.) I was like "nehh confirm not good" (omfg don't be offended!!! I have this mindset that local talent ain't that good enough not that I look down but omfggg I should shut up now..) but when you guys where on stage, YOU GUYS REALLY BLEW ME AWAY !!! like literally!!! I really really love how you guys sing those covers and like make it into your own style.. If you get what mean. ITS JUST SO UNIQUE AND INDIE IS DEFINITELY MY LOVEEEEEE ! And you guys are so friendly, kind, humble. And since then, trust me, I've been stalking you guys. I won the tickets for the Mediacorp thingy to see you guys !!! SANDRA WAVED AT ME !! Haha lol sooo yeahhh, is it long enough??
P.s YOU OWNED THIS SONG. Luvvvit xx
Really good.. impressed.. just got to know about you guys! Keep it up! Great music
Wonderful :)
Nice voice didn't expect it.
I should win because I'm the first to comment and hence the most eager to go catch Dia Frampton live!! HAHA keeding. I want to win the tickets because I've never gone to a concert with my boyfriend before and this would be an amazing opportunity to bring him to watch a great performer live!

So very perfect. The harmony is way better than the previous covers tbh but those were also really beautiful :)
Wow you guys are REALLY good!!!
Best cover so far, I love it
I've listened to Meg and Dia since Secondary School days and songs like "Setting Up Sunday", "Indiana" and "Cardigan Weather" stir up so much warm nostalgia in me. you've no ideahhhhh. I'm a HUGE fan of Dia's voice and solo works as well and was the main reason why I got into The Voice in the first place. Such an incredible yet underrated artiste. I missed the chance to catch her around the same time last year [due to NS! Damn NS! (But congrats to Ben Kheng for his upcoming role in Ah Boys to Men musical!)]. Well, I'm glad she's returning with her sister this time 'round and I really don't wanna miss it! The tickets would be an awesome CNY present heh :D You guys should do a collab with her when she's here, it'd be amazinnnn.
Much love xx
P.S Can't wait for new music by you guys this year too!
#TSWGiveaway

You are all so beautiful/handsome!
I would absolutely love to win tickets to your concert! I love the chill, folksy vibes of your music and I think that The Sam Willows really made me pay more attention to local music. I REALLY love your band hahaha and it would be awesome if I could go to your concert :)
#TSWgiveaway
38 dislikers don't understand the word "Emotions". Oh well.
your so cool i love you and i hope you will never give up to sing and make music
I've been following Dia Frampton since her time as part of Meg & Dia through to her time on The Voice and I've been dying to listen to her live! Not to mention 'The Broken Ones' was the song that helped get me through some tough times in the past. #TSWgiveaway
Hey, this is a great cover. Can you guys also do a cover on Demons by Imagine Dragons?
Interesting!
the stare-downs woah. so intimate haha
Where can I buy the physical copy of the EP?
that eyes on the man.. lolololol
I really love Dia and i have been supporting her since the voice! I loved inventing shadows a lot and even danced to it before. Anyway i love this cover a lot it sounds really good! #TSWGiveaway
phew wow all 3 of you are beautiful sexy singers :) keep at it ya'll rock!!!
#TSWgiveaway Hi guys, wow, it's so great that you guys are holding this giveaway. :)
Why I should win tickets to Dia Frampton's gig:
I deserve to win those tickets because I, like many others, am a huge fan of Dia Frampton. I have been fan of her even before she was just 'Dia Frampton' or known as 'Dia Frampton from The Voice'. When I got to know that she joined The Voice, I was really excited for her! I know that by joining that competition, she could make a big difference for Meg & Dia as a band. 3 years ago, I created @megdiasg on twitter as a form of fanbase account to get connected with other fellow Meg & Dia fans. It was rare for me to come across another Meg and Dia fan in Singapore but that account also got me to get connected to other fans around the world. Now, that account is also considered a Dia Frampton fanbase account as well and The Khaki Scouts(Meg Frampton's side project) too. I'm 20 now and the first song I ever heard from Meg & Dia was 'Roses' when I was... 13. I have been a fan of Meg & Dia for that long. Dia's lyrics as Meg & Dia and Dia Frampton has inspired me so much, especially the fact that she loves to read books and gets inspiration to write songs from reading books. I find that super cool that even literature could be a form of music inspiration. I have almost every Meg & Dia song and Dia Frampton songs in my itunes and know all the lyrics by heart. Dia has also inspired me to grab every opportunity and give it a chance. If I do win the tickets, it would mean the world to me as I get to see my favourite artist in the flesh.
Thank you :)
I've been a fan of Meg and Dia since monster days, followed her progress in the Voice and I've watched all her RUclips videos. I was having examinations the first time she came to Hard Rock and thus missed it. I really want to catch her live but non of my friends know her, so if I win a pair of tickets I'll ask the cute girl from my previous school as my date. #TSWGiveaway
Is there an itunes version of this?
Sandra has that catch in her voice that makes me cringe. She's a great singer tbh
Lovin Chye She's my favourite :)
isnt he the guy from the bad blood cover in khs
yeah he is benjamin kheng
is it wrong if I ship Ben and Sandra? 😂😂😂💙
{{A rap/ poem for Dia}}
Yo
Dee-yaa
I wanna meet yaa
I wanna see yaa
I wanna be yaa
cuz when you sing
i hear the heavens o-pe-ning
and also i love your hair
So please, pretty please may i win the tickets? heh
#TSWGiveaway
amnesia?
I ship BenDra heehee
mai step leh. don't drama
nationality ??
They are Singaporean :)
GalaxyBitxh thanks....
are you phillipino no efense
Liza Buco nope , I'm a Malaysians .. 😄
+Liza Buco you are spelling offense wrong
the face maintain pls
This cover is so so good!! It's just my opinion but i think ben kheng and sandra should break off and duet. Their voices are so much stronger and their vocal chemistry is better as well. Maybe thats just me. Haha, but i'm wondering how many out there agree?
How come you guys look the same
THATS RACIST
***** same eyes....thats racist!
***** Siblings!
Oriental countries?
one of the boys and one of the girls are siblings!

Hrm. Sam Willows is great, but I've got to say, he's really missed the magic of the original here. This is an "OK" version of a mind-bendingly powerful song. Were it anything else, that would be fine. Disappointing.
This version is pretty anti-climatic.
