What makes a great album? Strong songwriting, excellent musicianship, a great voice and something just a little different, will do for a start. Brighter Day has all of these.
There's some great songs on here. With really strong melodies and interesting lyrics, there's something for everyone. For me, Aeroplane and Possibilities, Two Hearts and Cartwheel Queen are early standout tracks, but many of the others are slow burners for sure. The current single, Brighter Day, is going to add a little sunshine to the coming winter.
The musicians, including Sam, perform brilliantly. Steve White's drumming drives along the upbeat songs and Sam's violin on a couple of tracks, adds something a little different.
Sam's got a great voice. Always with emotion, but at times, deeply soulful. The songs are perfectly matched to his voice. There's real depth there as well, with at times a real grittiness.
So what's different? I think that it is the real feel good factor that surrounds the songs. That's not to say they are shallow in any way,they just make you want to sing along and dance [well almost]. Oh yes, Sam also manages to name check Hornsea, now that really is different.
Go out and buy, you won't be disappointed. In fact, buy two and give someone you love a little sunshine this Christmas.

Bought originally for the Brighter Day track but given the cost decided to go for the whole album (and the second album too). The right decision. I've got my favourites and some of the tunes are stuck in m head but there are no duds, and unlike most albums I buy and end up skipping tracks time and again, not so with Sam's work. Brilliant. Only thing I would say is that the 2nd album, Too Much Of A Good Thing, is marginally better.

Great cd as well as his latest, 'too much of a good thing'. Saw him at 'Fruit' in Hull and he was fantastic.

I was at the Overtones Convert in London on Monday Night and Sam was the support act... He was amazing....
Great Songs, Great Album, Great Singer.... There isnt much more you can say other than he is an amazing talent and he should have the same high level of success as The OverTones.

Sam Gray is a musical talent who shouldn't be ignored. A stunning debut album that has been on repeat since I put it in the player.

This is simply a cracking debut from one of the "Brightest" emerging young stars in the UK today! Saw him on tour with The Overtones recently and my word... what can I can say? Whatever you do, buy this fricking album!
