Tonight I was joined in the studio by Brentwood’s own Sam Callahan. Sam may be familiar to many of you as a contestant on the X Factor in 2013 (shortly after he first performed for us at one of our Brentwood Centre gigs, no less!), but has certainly proved himself as no flash in the TV talent show pan, with regular appearances on the gig circuit across the UK and overseas. His latest single Say Something is out now, and we were treated to two new versions of the track tonight alongside a live session. Click above to listen back to the interview (at around 00:30) in which Sam discusses life after the X Factor as well as his plans for a busy summer of live shows. Find him on Twitter and Facebook.
