เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 21 พ.ค. 2016
Sam Lynch is a Vancouver based singer-songwriter and musician, who makes wallflower hush-rock songs that will stare you down and slow your breathing. Her sophomore album “Outline” is out now via Birthday Cake Records.
Outline, the title of Sam Lynch’s latest album, represents unfinished business. It suggests a tension of things being unresolved: an incomplete edge-work where not all the lines had a chance to get coloured in; the tension linked to loss and grief and the empty space that is left behind. But Outline is also forward facing, a map or plan for where to head next.
Sam's debut LP, Little Disappearance, released October 2020 via Birthday Cake Records, propelled her onto some of the country’s biggest venue and festival stages, appearing in headlining roles and in support of artists like Men I Trust, Andy Shauf, and Faye Webster. Sam's songwriting contributions have earned her awards and accolades, including the 2022 Western Canadian Music award for “Songwriter of the Year.”

Lyrics:
I’m alright
Sometimes I think I’m getting better
Then I let the feeling drag me down again
You meet my eyes
But I fear you see right through me
So I let the room consume me
And I float above my head
I’m thinking,
I’ve been doing my best?
I’ve been doing my best
I’ve been doing my best?
I’ve been doing my best
We hold hands
And we hold ourselves together
But I wonder if you ever dream about being alone
I’d understand
I overthink my breathing
Wonder if everything I’m seeing is the best that it could be
Maybe I’ve been doing my best to keep my head above water
A little disappearance is the best I can offer
And I’ve been doing my best
I’ve been doing my best
Maybe I’ve been doing my best
I’ve been doing my best
I’ve been doing my best
I’ve been doing my best

Hi, Your song was suggested to me by Swipefy, I really like it and you've just won yourself a loyal Paris fan!
Great song, love the music video
Came for the clown, stayed for the tune. Great work, Sam!
Beautiful ❤️🩹
🩵
Found your song by chance, loved it. Wish you success.
I missed you ❤
One of your best songs so far
Hello talent! Was also pleasantly surprised to see Luca Fogale make a cameo. You two are brilliant
Outline is your best work yet! Love it!
There is some pain of being excited to perform, but ending up only to an empty audience 😔
🇧🇴 Justo al corazón
Very nice👍
I love the choreography of the song.
Better than the 99,9% crap that's out there. You going to be big one day for sure. Great music, keep it up.
Niiiiiiiiiice one!
good song, odd video
🇧🇷⚘
Nice work! Beautifully shot along side a very nice tune.
Incredible!
Yes Yes More sam lynch! Can't wait for the new album
This song is stuck in my head now. Love it!
keep it sis
Can’t believe that I was in Van and I missed you…
I cannot get enough of this song. For 3 weeks now I listen to it on repeat for hours.
Another good recommendation from You Tube ❤
Yeah Sam! I'm happy you didn't fall entirely off the map, and am looking forward to listening to your upcoming album. Rooting for ya!
This is great Sam, you're a great artist and this song hits home
Great recommendation from TH-cam
Oooof when the drums come in....damn
Omg! I was listening to to good year this afternoon and wondering when you’ll release more music for us😭😭
Wonderful to see new music from you
Found your music a couple years ago while in Vancouver. One of my favorite spots to get out to and now I can listen to your albums and feel like I'm back there, walking the streets in the spring. Look forward to all your future projects and hope to catch you live sometime! Cheers from Alberta
The white lie we tell ourselves every passing year.
The melancholic feeling of trying to tell yourself that the present moment will be fine
this is a nice song
Beautiful person with beautiful voice ❤
Whoooooo 🙆🏽♀️🥺😍💗
And it’s been about a year… seems like yesterday when I heard this song Sam
This is my favorite song now, I've had it on repeat for hours today it's like an old friend embracing you saying "It's all gonna be okay you know." Thank you Ma'm
Your voice is like the rain and mountains that brush the sky...
" Everytime I close my eyes... another year passes by" That's excactly what I am feeling.
❤️Very cool, Sam🤩🤩!!❤️
1. why am i only seeing this six years later? 2. i would not have guessed that was sam lynch. maybe it's the straight hair?
Very nice. Wish I could get it in Spotify.
I was really floating inside the feeling of this song. Your voice is so good, this is a masterpiece.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW😍🥰
Beyond powerful. Well done, Sam. Not a dry eye in the house..... ❤
Ran across this in an Indie compilation, amazing!
Awwww I love your voice 😘 listening from Uganda
