Background notes
Archive material and source history
Sampha Sisay was born in London in 1988 to Sierra Leonean parents. He started making music early, drawing from soul and experimental sounds. His voice first reached a wider audience in 2013 on SBTRKT's track "Hold On," where his delivery felt both fragile and steady.
His debut album Process came out in 2017. It included songs like "Plastic 100°C" and "(No One Knows Me) Like The Piano," which carried a quiet, personal weight. The writing dealt with family and loss, shaped in part by his mother's death from cancer in 2015.
After a few years away, he returned with a second album in 2022. He works alone, but often brings in other producers and musicians. His music stays close to the voice and the keys, leaving space around the notes.
