Sam Millar

Virtual Summer

£34.99

Released: 27th September 2024. Picture a time when you could have a good time all the time. It was an era when fast cars rolled under neon lights, yachts were a sensible housing decision and fighting for your right to party was a full time occupation. This mythical age had an equally flamboyant soundtrack to match, and it blared from boomboxes and dashboards in every time zone. It was the 1980s, and bands like Van Halen, Toto and Def Leppard personified a summertime sound built on big beats, bigger melodies and choruses so epic that singing along was the law, and places like Vegas, Hollywood, and Miami Beach became hedonistic epicenters of a global, sonic heatwave. Cruelly overlooked among these hard-partying capitals is the little town of Wigan, just outside of Manchester - average annual rainfall: lots. It was there that multi-talented musician Sam Millar was born, and where that '80s vibe has found new life in the form of his debut solo record. It's called 'Virtual Summer', and it's 14 slabs of the slickest sounds this side of a hot pink Mustang with the top down and the stereo way, way up.
