Sam Fender Covers Amy Winehouse Classic ‘Back To Black’

And he's re-scheduled his UK tour...

Sam Fender has shared a cover of the Amy Winehouse song 'Back To Black'.

The oft-covered song is a modern classic, fusing that incredible vocal with a powerful sense of emotion.

The Amy Winehouse version has been spun in several different directions, with Sam Fender first covering the song for Live Lounge.

Given an official release, it's a spartan take on the original, while Sam's knee-trembling vocal sends shivers down the spine.

Sam Fender says…

"'Back To Black' is such a long-standing favourite of mine, and Amy remains a national treasure. I love that album too, I hopefully did the track some justice. You’ll all be the judge of that.."

Tune in now.
