2nd #SamFender album I consume from beginning to end and listen approx 10 times in the year. This one just earned the #MercuryPrize 2025 in a first-time non-in-London ceremony. Talented lad, I wish he played across North America 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇲🇽 as many would enjoy.
I like Sam Fender a lot but CMAT was robbed

Thrilled for #SamFender deservedly winning #MercuryPrize last night. Proper working-class voice, phenomenally gifted and great for my beloved North East. Canny lad. Seventeen Going Under took my breath away and made me cry when I first heard it. Still does sometimes www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzQ6...
Following Sam Fender 's #MercuryPrize win last night, Jim Auton asks "Who is the Mercury Prize actually for? Absolutely no-one it would seem." #samfender www.godisinthetvzine.co.uk/2025/10/17/p...
This is genius. An entire new cultural form has been created as they often are by complete accident. #MercuryPrize #MissMarple
North Tyneside is arguably the musical powerhouse of Tyne & Wear followed by Sunderland and South Tyneside (I forgot the Animals - also South Tyneside). The two landlocked boroughs (Newcastle and Gateshead) are way behind, unless you count Wallsend as Newcastle. #mercuryprize
Great to see Mercury Prize awards in Newcastle after hosting fringe event at our Mark Hillery Music Studios #mercuryprize #durham #durhamuniversity
Really amazing show at the #MercuryPrize last night. Smooth production, great staffing from venue and epic performances. Fantastic result for Sam Fender, the NE and the North in general. www.theguardian.com/music/2025/o...
Watched a bit of the Mercury Prize coverage on BBC4 last night….every single album nominated, bland AF with perhaps the exception of Pulp. The absolute state of it! #MercuryPrize
First time in a long while that I've bought and listened to the #MercuryPrize winner before they won... Well done, Sam Fender!

What a cowardly #MercuryPrize win: a bog/standard album without a scintilla of musical innovation or counter-cultural perspective. Tender seems like a perfectly decent guy but wins because his views (and sound) won’t upset the sponsors, unlike CMAT for example.

If they have to give the #mercuryprize to an act local to the ceremony then could they not have nominated the last Half Man Half Biscuit album instead?

Sam Fender won the #MercuryPrize. Not really heard him before. They’re playing the LP out on #BBC6Music now. It’s alright.
