Sam Windley creates candid urban alternative music in the vein of Stella Donnelly, Cat Power, and Suzanne Vega.
Compelled by recently lost love and the introspective depression that results from life on the slimy Sydney conveyor belt, Windley has spent the last two years writing extensively. Among the deluge of words and emotions, 7 songs were born, and with the help of producer/translator Chris Collins, these took shape as an eccentric and vulnerable EP, Pink and Nervous.
These 7 songs tell the story of Windley’s 30-year-old future self sitting beneath a window in an unaffordable inner-city apartment holding a near-empty drink at an obscenely late hour, reminiscing on earlier days.
Windley has recently signed to I OH YOU Publishing and is set to release her debut body of work in 2022 via Platoon Music (Confidential) the label home to Billie Ellish, Rex OC and Holly Humberstone’s debut EPs.
Recently Windley has supported Budjerah, Missy Higgins, Babe Rainbow, Didirri, Shannen James, and The Grogans
