Wow! Did you see Sam Stevenson on the telly last night?

That moment where the voices of Vika and Linda rolled in behind one of our own – magic! I need to watch that again – goosebumps!

“It was an amazing opportunity to be a part of,” Sam says.

“I got to sing with some of the best voices in Australia, it was such an honour, I didn’t feel like I deserved it, but I was so happy to be a part of that, it was incredible.”

The Recording Studio on ABC TV culminated last night after nine weeks celebrating the joy and power of music and those who do it.

The series has put everyday Australians centre stage with the opportunity of a lifetime – to professionally record a song in the ABC studios in Sydney with the industry’s very best backing them all the way.

The Recording Studio: June 18 2019

Published by David Knox on June 17, 2019

Sam Stevenson
37-year-old Sam Stevenson is a rural firefighting volunteer, and much-loved local hero, who is being championed by his community to realise his dream of recording a song in a studio. In March 2018 in Tathra, Sam along with other fire and rescue members and volunteers, fought 200 bushfires over three days that destroyed 69 houses but thanks to their efforts 300 homes were saved. Sam has been nominated by his local community as a thank you for his all his work and Sam in turn wants to thank everyone who helped with the fire effort by dedicating a song to them, ‘With A Little Help From My Friends’ by Joe Cocker. Music producer Matt Fell calls on music legends and back up vocalists Vika and Linda Bull, and a full rock band to help Sam create this community recording.
