French-Canadian singer-songwriter from the Ottawa region, Al Sam blends beachside vibes with R&B into a sound that’s both timeless and deeply personal. His music explores love, growth, and human connection, shaped by a life of hardship and self-discovery.
Once a rebellious youth who turned to the military to confront his inner struggles, a career-ending injury led him back to music, not as an escape, but as a means of expression and connection. Now a key figure in Ottawa’s independent scene, he focuses on building community through art.
His 2024 release, Crave You, unpacks the complexities of love and perspective. With a studio album on the way, Al Sam continues to share his passion, whether solo, with Catching Rain, or through his many projects (Duo, Trio, and Band).
