Sam's album success
Bristol Post
|July 03, 2025
SINGER-SONGWRITER Sam Fender’s People Watching is the biggest-selling album to be released this year so far, according to the Official Charts Company.
-
People Watching became Fender's third number one album when it came out in February, with sales soaring as the North Shields-born singer played a series of sold-out shows in the North West last month.
Meanwhile, another singer-songwriter - US star Alex Warren - has overtaken British star Lola Young as the artist with the UK’s biggest song of the year so far.
His song Ordinary has enjoyed a total of 1.09 million chart sales and been streamed 128 million times since its February release.
