Earlier this month, Stephen Sanchez stepped onto one of music’s most legendary stages when he made his debut at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville. With his vintage-leaning sound, swooning melodies, and unmistakable nods to 50s and 60s influences, Sanchez was right at home under the Opry lights – bridging eras in a way few modern artists can.
With just-released single ‘CHUCK THE MONEY’, Stephen Sanchez continues his incredible trajectory, further expanding his sonic universe that feels rooted in the past while always looking toward the future. Bolstered by a flourish of trumpets, Stephen urges listeners to shift their priorities from material things to true, powerful connection.
His highly anticipated sophomore album Love, Love, Love (out 8 May) sheds the character artifice and swoony, reverbed 50s/60s grooves of his debut record in lieu of bold, technicolour pop songs that still carry the lineage of his classic roots while stepping confidently into a vivid, modern new era. Across eleven tracks, Stephen muses about love in its many forms – partners, friends, neighbours, and even strangers. He shares, “This record is inspired by the love I’ve been lucky enough to receive, the love I sometimes struggle to give to others, and my desire to see people come together. To quote the title track, ‘it’s just what the world needs!’”
The album’s title track is the second single from the record, following ‘SWEET LOVE’ in January, which upon release marked Stephen’s biggest streaming debut of his career, earning over 500,000 streams in its first day alone. Leaning into an upbeat, Motown-style groove, Stephen recently performed a sensational live rendition of the song on Good Morning America – Watch it here.
Stephen Sanchez has materialised at the forefront of popular culture with a sound that’s as timeless as it is necessary for the times. It’s easy to sway into the embrace of his breezy baritone stylings, warm guitar phrasing, and untouchable charisma.
Barely in his twenties, the singer, songwriter, guitarist, and producer has already enchanted audiences around the world. The release of his debut album Angel Face and global hit ‘Until I Found You’ saw the world embrace the swoon-worthy artist, with the track going multi-platinum, vaulting into the Top 25 of the Billboard Hot 100, and generating over 2 billion streams.
This Australian and New Zealand return promises more than just a concert—it’s an experience. Expect sweeping melodies, cinematic moments, and the kind of raw, emotional performance that turns first-time listeners into lifelong fans. Whether you’ve been there since the beginning or only just discovered his music, this is your chance to witness an artist who’s redefining modern romance in real time.
Love, Love, Love is out 8 May. Pre-Order/Pre-Save the new record HERE
