Formed in mid-2012, The Sam Willows are made up of siblings Benjamin and Narelle Kheng and their friends Sandra Riley Tang and Jonathan Chua.

They released their self-titled debut EP to great acclaim in October 2012 and amassed more than a million views on their YouTube page with more than 15k subscribers. They were invited to perform at Singapore’s broadcast giant, Mediacorp, Channel 5’s live telecast countdown show event, “Celebrate 2013”. They took home the m:idea Youth Choice Award in 2013 and 2014 in the band category by popular vote.

In April 2013, the Singaporean quartet entered the studio with Steve Lillywhite for a week-long production session, organized by Singapore Music Society (SG MUSO). The result was a reworking of their track "Glasshouse" (Lillywhite edition); released as the band’s latest single at the time. In August 2013, the band released their "Glasshouse" music video.

The band signed to Sony Music Singapore on a 360 deal in January 2015. In February 2015, The Sam Willows embarked on their journey to Stockholm, Sweden to record their debut album, Take Heart, with Producer Harry Sommerdahl.

In the same year, The Sam Willows recorded three songs, "Flags Up", "Ordinary" and "Champion", for the compilation album, Songs of the Games for the 2015 Southeast Asian Games. On 20 May, they released the first single from their album, "Take Heart".

The band was the Opening act for The Script at the Singapore Indoor Stadium in April 2015. The Sam Willows performed the song "Home" during the National Day Parade 2015. The band also recorded a song with veteran Singapore singer-songwriter Jimmy Ye "Come Back to You" as part of the SG50 celebrations.

The music video for their first single and the title track of their new album "Take Heart" was released in July 2015. The music video for their second single "For Love" was released in early October 2015. The single "Rest Of Your Life" was released in October 2015.
