Born and raised in the Netherlands, Säm’s life took an unexpected turn when a chance encounter with a recording studio at 19 in Los Angeles ignited his passion for music. He left school, moved across the globe, and began his journey under the name Beekwilder, leading to a notable collaboration with Maty Noyes on the track "Lava Lamps (feat. Beekwilder)". After years of refining his craft, Säm debuted his EP Homebound in 2020, a raw and reflective collection of songs that captured the emotional push and pull of starting a life in LA while still feeling the pull of home in the Netherlands. His latest releases are soulful, R&B-tinged pop songs, characterized by rich storytelling and smooth production. With his second EP on the horizon, the recent singles, "SO EASY," "DOWN TO EARTH," and "USUALLY," showcase a more intimate and evolved side of his songwriting, signaling an exciting new chapter in his career.
