Singer-songwriter Benjamin Scheuer has released a song about a transgender woman called ‘I am Samantha’.
The track is based on the real life story of Samantha Williams, who Scheuer encountered and befriended in a New York City coffee shop.
During their conversations, Samantha related to Scheuer that she had never heard a song about someone with her name. He promptly changed that, filling notebooks with her journey of life and transition.
