Australian-born vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Sam Sparro shot to fame with the release of his 2008 debut single, "Black and Gold." His style of music is derived from contemporary R&B, particularly his gospel-trained vocals, and often harks back to the '80s, but it's a thoroughly modern style, driven by state-of-the-art electronic dance production techniques and sounds. He releases the 3rd EP in a series, "Quantum Physical, Vol. 3 [EP]", on August 19.
