PEOPLE WATCHING
by SAM FENDER

People Watching is the third studio album from North Shields singer-songwriter Sam Fender.

Released on February 21 2025, People Watching includes the singles Arm's Length, Remember My Name, Wild Long Lie and its title track.

People Watching sees Sam explore "colourful stories and observations of everyday characters living their everyday, but often extraordinary, lives," with Sam co-writing every track on the record. Collaborators on the LP include Dean Thompson, Joe Atkinson, Markus Dravs and Adam Granduciel. 

On 28 February People Watching became Sam Fender's record-breaking third Number 1 album, earning Sam the biggest opening week of his career with over 107,000 units sold, the fastest-selling album by a British artist since Harry Styles' Harry's House three years prior, while Official Charts named it as the fastest-selling vinyl album of the century so far.
