The group’s fifth studio album Townie marks a compelling new chapter for the band as they return to their upstate New York roots.

X Ambassadors – Sam Nelson Harris (vocals, guitar, saxophone, bass), Casey Harris (piano, keys) and Adam Levin (drums) exploded onto scene with their debut album VHS, and have barely missed a beat since. The multi-platinum-selling trio have gone on to dominate the alternative charts over the last decade with huge hits ‘Unsteady’ and ‘Renegades’ generating over 1.3 billion streams combined and leading the band to a world tour spanning three years.
The band has also penned tracks for notable film and television productions. Most recently, their track ‘Deep End’ was written for and featured in box office smash Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom as well as ‘Torches’ (Transformers), ‘Great Unknown’ (The Call of the Wild) and ‘Sucker for Pain’ (Suicide Squad).
Outside of X Ambassadors, Sam Nelson Harris has had an eclectic career as a songwriter and producer for artists such as D4VD, 21 Savage, Rihanna, Lizzo, Travis Scott, The Weeknd, SZA and Maren Morris. He has also collaborated with artists including Eminem, Jay-Z, Jacob Banks, K.Flay, grandson, The Knocks, Kygo, Illenium and Machine Gun Kelly. Sam has played the world’s biggest music festivals, headlined countless nationwide and world tours, celebrated a #1 song at Alternative radio and multiple songs in the Top 10.
