Sam Farrar
Sam John Farrar (born June 29, 1978) is an American musician who is the primary bass guitarist for the pop band Maroon 5, having joined the band in 2016. A frequent collaborator with the band since the 1990s, he joined as a touring member in 2012 and was promoted to bass guitarist in 2020. He has also been the bassist for the rock band Phantom Planet since their formation in 1994.
Farrar is the bass guitar player for the American rock band Phantom Planet. He also joined the band Operation Aloha with members of Gomez and Maroon 5. He and his wife, Stephanie, have started their own music project, called Bubble and Strife.
In 2012, Farrar became a touring member of Maroon 5, playing various instruments, including guitars, occasional bass guitar, percussion and additional keyboards, singing backing vocals and providing samples and other special effects (using the MPC).
A longtime collaborator of the band, he co-wrote and co-produced a few of the band's songs on almost all of their studio albums and also remixed one of their songs, which is called "Woman", on Call and Response: The Remix Album, released in 2008. On August 31, 2012 – during a show in Argentina on the Overexposed Tour – Farrar filled-in for Mickey Madden on the bass guitar for the first time since 2001. He subsequently filled-in for Madden on the next few shows of the tour.
After touring with the band for the next couple of years, Farrar was named an official member in late 2017, with the release of Red Pill Blues. He replaced Madden as bassist in 2020.
Farrar was born in Los Angeles, California, to Australian parents. His father, John Farrar, was a member of The Shadows and also carved a successful songwriting career, penning many of Olivia Newton-John's big hits as well as producing nearly every one of her albums during her most successful years. His mother, Pat Carroll, was a successful Australian pop singer in the 1960s. He attended The Buckley School.
Farrar married Stephanie Eitel in 2007, formerly a member of the band Agent Sparks. Their daughter was born in 2009, and their son in 2014. He is the older brother of musician, composer and producer Max Farrar, who is the keyboardist and guitarist of the rock band Azura, and whose work also ranges from The Script to Lewis Capaldi.
