Samsara’s “PUT ‘EM UP!” Kicks Off a Music-Meets-Mission Tour Across UK Schools
On May 30, Samsara releases her latest single “PUT ‘EM UP!”—a vibrant, rebellious anthem—and kicks off a historic school tour across the UK. At 21, she’s making waves as the first openly trans artist to bring pop performance and LGBTQ+ advocacy directly into secondary schools.
Bold and unfiltered, the track channels defiance into rhythm. “This song is for anyone who’s ever been told to sit down or stay quiet,” says Samsara. “PUT ‘EM UP!’ is about standing your ground and celebrating who you are—loudly.”
More than a release, “PUT ‘EM UP!” launches a movement. Samsara’s tour will see her visit high schools across the country, using her music and story to foster safe, inclusive spaces for young people. From identity and mental health to visibility and empowerment, each stop becomes an opportunity to connect.
“I didn’t have someone like me growing up. Now I get to be that person for others,” she shares.
From fashion to music, Samsara’s artistry reflects her global upbringing in Brisbane, Hong Kong, Singapore, and now London. Her creative résumé includes styling, performing, LGBTQ+ speaking, and digital work with Vogue Hong Kong.
With Pride festival appearances ahead and her haunting single “Venomous” in the pipeline, 2025 is already shaping into a banner year. And with “PUT ‘EM UP!”, she’s putting power—and pride—front and center.
