SANSOM is a dynamic rock artist and band hailing from Brighton, UK. Formerly known as Edward Sansom, he has streamlined his name to simply SANSOM to reflect a new wave of creativity and momentum.

Delivering a powerful blend of dark tension and lyrical depth, SANSOM's music evolves into anthemic rock choruses that resonate on the dance floor. Drawing inspiration from iconic artists like Bowie, SANSOM's charged sound is reminiscent of bands such as QOTSA, Arctic Monkeys, and Foals. His raw and honest performances are driven by gritty guitars and captivating melodies.

Having made a mark beyond his hometown, SANSOM has graced prestigious festival lineups, including Glastonbury, Isle of Wight, and Camden Rocks. He has also been a featured artist at The Great Escape and BN1 Festivals, earning Track of the Day placements on the BBC Introducing show on BBC Sussex/Surrey and international airplay on RTE2XM.

This year, SANSOM has been hard at work in the studio, collaborating with producer Alex Gordon on four exciting new tracks.  As Milky aptly put it, “SANSOM has spent the last few years honing in on his signature sound, arriving at his own distinct realm of alt-rock.”

Formed in London 2012, Bear’s Den have amassed a dedicated and international fan base with their anthemic indie-folk-rock. With 3 studio albums under their belt, as well as recent collaborative project “Fragments"with composer Paul Frith, they have been a regular fixture in the charts of UK and Europe since their inception. Their Debut album “Islands” also garnered a nomination for an Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically.  

Having toured around the world playing theatres, arenas and festivals (including Reading and Leeds, Glastonbury Festival, Pukkelpop, Lowlands and Bonnaroo), in 2019, following the release of their third album “So That You Might Hear Me" they returned to their origins for a tour of tiny "Highlands and Islands" venues across Scotland and a supporting documentary.  No stranger to music documentary making, the band also featured heavily in the award winning documentary Austin To Boston alongside Ben Howard, Nathaniel Rateliff and The Staves. 

The band’s most recent release, 2020’s “Fragments” is a collaborative work with acclaimed composer/arranger Paul Frith (Bear’s Den, The xx, Radiohead), taking highlights of the band’s back catalogue and rebuilding them from the ground up, alongside an orchestral ensemble, creating a completely new body of work from pieces of the originals.
