“I dreamed of the success that I’m having now, but if I’m really honest, I never thought it would be a reality.” - SamFischer
When rising pop artist Sam Fischer moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in music full-time, he would lie to his mom about how it was going. “I’d say, ‘Everything is good, I’ve got money and I’m killin’ it and have all these opportunities,’ but I was sleeping on couches and working as a delivery boy for an Australian meat pie shop,” he recalls.
But thanks to his emotional and all-too-relatable ballad, “This City," which is about how L.A. nearly broke his spirit, Fischer is enjoying a career high -- even if he has to experience it all from home, due to the ongoing pandemic. “I knew it was a special song, but it’s my little story and I was like, ‘Who cares?” he says. “But there’s a universal message in there.”
Now, he’s ready to prove that he’s not just “a TikTok viral moment” and is eager to share an upcoming project that has been in the works for the last four years, from when he got dropped by his first label through his recent signing with RCA. “It all feels like a freak accident to me," he says. “I dreamed of the success that I’m having now, but if I’m really honest, I never thought it would be a reality.
Sam Fischer grew up a couple hours outside of Sydney, Australia, driving an hour to and from school each day. “The only albums my dad had in his car were, and a Sundance rock compilation album,” he recalls. At age seven, when his family moved to Sydney, Fischer — who played violin from a young age and later took up saxophone — gained interest in Destiny’s Child , K-Ci & JoJo, Donny Hathaway and Mariah Carey.
After college, Fischer moved across the country to Los Angeles -- but struggled mentally and career-wise. “I kept trying to change myself to find a version that would fit in with L.A.,” he recalls. “My mental health was just down the drain.” He ended up using those emotions to fuel a 2016 writing session, in which he came up with the lyrics for what became his breakout hit, “This City.
