Biography

Samuel Mubenesha, known as Sam The Psalmist, is a singer-songwriter whose music reflects a profound spiritual journey. Born in the Democratic Republic of Congo, his early life was marked by displacement due to violence, leading his family through Zambia, Botswana, and eventually South Africa. This diverse background significantly influences his music. Raised by a strict doctor father and a creatively driven mother, Sam was instilled with values of hard work and perseverance from a young age. His musical journey began at twelve as an accompanist, but it wasn’t until his early twenties, after receiving melodies and lyrics in dreams, that he fully embraced singing. The title "psalmist" resonated with him deeply, reflecting his spiritual calling. Sam’s music is influenced by contemporary Christian artists like Israel Houghton and Hillsong, blending modern sounds with spiritual depth. One of his most impactful works, "Breakthrough," emerged from a period of deep grief following his father's death from COVID-19. During this challenging time, Sam struggled with his faith and found prayer difficult. However, a divine moment during his devotion brought clarity and inspiration, leading to the creation of "Breakthrough." The lyrics "I can see Your hand moving in this place" became a pivotal point in his spiritual journey, symbolizing hope, healing, and a renewed faith.
