Sam Morton includes singer/songwriter and acclaimed actor and director Samantha Morton, and music producer and artist Richard Russell – today release a new single, “Cry Without End”, via XL Recordings. Featuring musician and composer Alabaster DePlume. The single is complimented by a deeply personal music video directed by, and featuring, Morton herself.

“Cry Without End” is the first full release the duo and sees their music available digitally for the first time, alongside 7” vinyl which is available to pre-order here. It follows the release of two highly sought-after, vinyl-only releases in 2023, the AA-sided singles “Hunger Hill Road / Ghosts Are Dancing” and “Supplication / Headbouncing”.

Despite a lifelong love of, and involvement in, music, Sam Morton is Samantha Morton’s first ever artist project. The collaboration came out after Russell reached out following her much talked-about appearance on Desert Island Discs and shared love of one of her song selections in particular: “I Remember” by Molly Drake. A period of spontaneous and intense collaboration followed, one that yielded more than an album’s worth of music and acted as a cathartic vehicle for their part-autobiographical lyricism and song-writing.

Meanwhile, Sam Morton today also announce news of their debut live show. The event will take place at London’s Below Stone Nest on Monday 25th March, with tickets going on general sale on Friday 16th February. They’ve also been announced to perform at this year’s End Of The Road festival.
