Sam Austins

Sam Austins has never been one to stay within the lines, venturing beyond dimensions to redefine what alternative music can be. His sound, fluid and alive, shifts to mirror his emotions, reshaping expectations of creativity and individuality. The Detroit-born artist endured homelessness post-high school, a transformative period that shaped his perspective and fueled his art. Living at his aunt’s house, he poured himself into songwriting, quietly buzzing out of Michigan with independent releases, television placements on shows like HBO’s Euphoria, and a reputation built around his live performances in the city.

Critics like Billboard and OnesToWatch praised his boundary-breaking artistry, while Vogue, AltPress, and Pigeons & Planes celebrate his unique vision. Now based in Los Angeles, Sam draws on influence across all genres, using his limitless creativity to push alternative music into uncharted territory.
