SMITH PERFORMS ON “SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE” ON JANUARY 21

January 11, 2023— (Hollywood, CA) — Today, multi-Platinum, GRAMMY®, BRIT, Golden Globe and Oscar winning artist/songwriter Sam Smith shared “Gimme”– a clubby, dancehall-infused lover’s call featuring breakout Jamaican reggae/rap star Koffee and Colombian/Canadian R&B-pop maverick Jessie Reyez. Listen H ERE. The song, which received its first UK play on BBC Radio 1 as the Hottest Record In The World earlier today, comes on the heels of Sam’s chart-topping global smash “Unholy.” Recorded in Jamaica, “Gimme” is from Gloria, Sam’s fourth studio album, which will be released on January 27 via Capitol Records.

Describing the track as “filth!,” Sam Smith says, “I’m a sexual person, I like sex. It’s something I’m teaching myself to not be ashamed of. Me and Jessie were basically drunk, drinking whisky in Jamaica, two in the morning, running around absolutely wasted, like two girlfriends having a laugh.”

The official video for “Gimme” will premiere soon. Sam teased the “Gimme” original sound on TikTok and IG Reels, racking up millions of views and posts from fans using the sound.

Smith – who will make their third appearance as the musical guest on “Saturday Night Live” on January 21 – will kick off the North American leg of Gloria The Tour on July 25.
