    the whole biography
    SG Lewis started his musical career as a resident DJ for Chibuku in Liverpool, a place that gave him his musical education and allowed him to cut his teeth as a DJ. It was there that he fell in love with electronic music, club culture, and mixing records. Since then, SG Lewis has built a reputation as one of the most versatile DJs in modern electronic music, known for blending house, disco, funk, and soulful pop into high-energy club sets. Behind the scenes, he has produced notable works such as Dave’s seminal breakout track “100M’s” and co-written “Hallucinate” for Dua Lipa’s record-smashing, GRAMMY-nominated number-one album Future Nostalgia. SG’s most recent collaboration with Keinemusik, “Be The One”, is yet another example of his ability to move fluidly across genres. His deep connection to club culture led to the creation of his record label, Forever Days, which is a club-centric imprint in the dance music world. Designed as a space to push creative boundaries beyond the sound of his solo artist project, the label has already unveiled collaborations with Chloe Caillet, DJ Seinfeld, and Loods - and thrown day-to-night parties in London, New York, Ibiza and Tulum. Speaking on Forever Days, SG Lewis explains: "For a long time now, I’ve wanted to create an outlet for the club-focused music I’m constantly making and a platform to champion artists I love - music made strictly for the dance floor, with the sole ambition of creating more of those euphoric moments." In 2025 SG Lewis released his highly anticipated third studio album, Anemoia, which explores the nostalgia of times and places never visited. Featuring standout collaborations with Shygirl, RAHH, TEED, London Grammar, and Oliver Sim, the album captures the dreamlike feeling of longing for places and moments that exist only in memory. Sam says of the album: “I have always felt connected musically to periods of time gone by - whether it be 70’s New York, 90’s Ibiza or the acid house explosion. Times where music and culture have collided in ways so massive, they changed the world forever. The feelings of nostalgia I have for all these different times and places, boiled down into my fantasy soundtrack for a hypothetical dance floor.”
