LIAM FENDER

"I haven’t chosen to do this – it’s just in my DNA."
It’s a statement that feels all the more powerful when you consider the name and the city he hails from. But Liam Fender isn’t here to ride on reputation. With his grounded, honest, and quietly hopeful songs, he’s firmly carving out his own space, one built on authenticity, not legacy.

Describing his sound as post-industrial romance, Liam draws inspiration from the likes of Richard Hawley, Nick Cave, Tom Waits, and Neil Hannon, blending these influences with the raw heritage and grit of Newcastle. His songs carry weight, warmth, and a real sense of place, each one telling a story.

Much like the man himself, Liam’s music is genuine, grounded, and quietly compelling.
