LA by-way-of New Jersey singer-songwriter and producer, Sam MacPherson has released his heartfelt new single, “Safe to Say” today. Co-written with frequent collaborator Adam Yaron, the new track is complete with guitar-driven melodies and a soaring bridge that underscore MacPherson’s earnest songcraft. Watch the accompanying visualizer now below.
“‘Safe to Say’ is about acknowledging the uncertainties of growing up and going through life, and wanting to hear your partner say that the love shared between you two is, at the least, not something that should ever be questioned,” Sam commented. “It’s a song that asks for assurance from someone in a period of life where nothing is ever guaranteed.”
Today, MacPherson has also announced that he will be embarking on his first-ever headline tour across North America this spring. Dubbed the “Powerlines Tour,” the trek kicks off in Washington, D.C. on Monday, April 17 and stops in major cities including New York, Boston, Nashville, and San Francisco, before culminating in Los Angeles on Friday, May 19 at the famed Troubadour. Tickets are on-sale today at 10:00AM local venue time HERE.
The forthcoming run of dates follows MacPherson’s successful year of touring in 2022, where he sold out his first hometown headline show (House of Independents in Asbury Park, NJ) and opened for Jake Scott all throughout the U.S. Previously, MacPherson has also shared stages with the likes of Chelsea Cutler and The Brook & The Bluff, and collaborated with a diverse array of acts like Stephen Sanchez, Jonah Kagen, Garrett Nash, VINCINT, and Quinn Lewis, among others.
Hailed as one of the top New Jersey artists to hear in 2023, MacPherson’s unfiltered, honest musicality has quietly affirmed him as a notable artist on the ascent, and doesn’t show signs of slowing down soon any time soon. In addition to tallying up nearly 50M career streams and a devoted fanbase nationwide, he has also garnered a dedicated following on TikTok with his candid, relatable video content. MacPherson’s forthcoming project is slated for release later this year via Elektra Entertainment. Stay tuned for more new original music coming very soon.
