aA founder The Observa was intrigued by the appearance of two foot soldiers from a southern land armed with guitars and coloured sticks of rock... "So who's in the band?" he asked the first. "It's just Sam and me" Rowan replied. That night, with their identity established, the pair begun their assault and they haven't looked back since.

Sam and Me (Sam Pridell and Rowan Dawes) have been developing their pure pop aesthetic for nearly 2 years. The philosophy is simple - write beautiful songs and take them onto the live circuit.

Now based in the Capital, in 2004 the band played regularly in London, Brighton and Manchester supporting the likes of Alfie, Lone Pigeon, Feist and more recently Art Brut, Nine Black Alps and The Longcut. They regularly play at the akoustik Anarkhy Clubnight at the centre of the latest Manchester Underground movement, which they bring to their hometown of Brighton every summer.
