Sam Beard’s debut single, Blood Streams, explores the coming to terms with human frailty, and the traits we leave, consciously or not, for future generations. The stripped-down production hints at a new musical direction for the singer/songwriter; a bedrock of fingerstyle guitar supported by sparse rhythmic elements.

Blood Streams

Cocoon is the brand new follow up single to Blood Streams, and the second offering from Singer-songwriter/guitarist Sam Beard. 


Recorded in early 2021 at his home studio in London, the song alludes to our endless quest to get to some new frontier, somewhere other than here, and how we lose sight of the important things right in front of us. Sam says: "I think, when I was writing the song, I was considering the contrast of that quest against a personal parsing of feeling alone whilst at the same time being surrounded by others.
