sam tompkins - hero (official video)

listen to hero: ‘who do you pray to? – the mini album out now: when i wrote this song, i always knew if i released it, i’d have to make the video special. so, with my dad’s permission and blessing i was able to tell his story and play him in this incredible music video/short film directed by the brilliant philip barantini. this was obviously terrifying for many reasons, but mainly because i didn’t wanna mess it up. thankfully, i’ve never been more proud of something in my life and the video came out just how i envisioned it. i hope you guys take the time to watch this because i really do think it’s special. being able to play my father and walk you guys through one of his darkest moments is an honour and made me feel even closer to him. i’m so glad he’s still with us and was able to watch the video and give me his blessing. he absolutely loves it as much as i do and we both along with the incredible team who helped this vi
