“Meet Me On The Moon” explores landscapes that are both expansive and intimate, with echoes of Nutini & Springsteen yet uniquely Sam Scherdel. The release showcasing his ability to juxtapose spacious sound with vulnerable storytelling makes Meet Me on the Moon an essential listen for fans of alternative & indie rock.
The EP is led by the single “If We Danced,” a heartfelt, country-tinged indie-folk stomper that perfectly captures Sam’s signature blend of charm and grit. It’s easy to see why fans have dubbed him “the South Yorkshire Springsteen.”
