Music Review: Sam Fender’s pop-rock soars on his third album, ‘People Watching’

As its title “People Watching” suggests, Sam Fender spends the bulk of his third studio album putting his observations about others — their histories, their futures, their troubles, their hopes — to music. Like the best of his previous releases, the project’s titular opening track is anthemic and robust. Its Springsteen-style makes you want to move, or at least, shout along with Fender.
