Sam Himself, real name Samuel Koechlin, lives betwixt Basel and Brooklyn, and his sound carries traces of both. His distinctive baritone voice – deep, consoling, vulnerable – has crossed the Atlantic more than once: heavy with meaning, yet carried by the wind. A timbre shaped by movement. With his debut Power Ballads (2021) and its follow-up Never Let Me Go (2023), he has become one of the most singular voices in Swiss music. Nominations for the Swiss Music Awards, national airplay on SRF 3, a track placed in an HBO series, and collaborations with the Sinfonieorchester Basel speak for themselves. His music is produced by Daniel Schlett (Iggy Pop, The War on Drugs) and mastered by Greg Calbi (Springsteen, Bowie). Somewhere between indie rock, new wave, widescreen melancholy and heartland romance, Sam Himself sails under his own flag. Step aboard – this journey goes deep, and far.
