Da ist er wieder, der Bruce Springsteen der Zukunft. SAM HIMSELF schreibt klassische Rock-Hymnen. Nachdem die erste Single ‚Nobody‘ sich an New York City gewendet hat, spricht er nun mit ‚Heartphones‘ Samuel T. Hering von Future Islands an. „Tell me just how hard it gets, tell me just how dark it gets, my craven heart, my coward heart, Tell me if you’re with me, when it does.“

„If you’ve ever chased a dream and bet the farm on it, you know the moments of deep doubt that come with true commitment,“ erklärt Sam. „I tried to capture that experience of losing faith in your own pursuit, where you cross-examine yourself like a lover in crisis: How much are you willing to pay for the thing you can’t live without? How much will it cost you? Heartphones is a love song about doing what you love.“
