SAM LEE & Friends Thurs 30th April
“The Band whittle folk in wonderful shapes, giving a flavour of 70s krautrock, while hints of disco and bluegrass added brilliant backing to Lee’s Baritone”
Jude Rogers, The Guardian
When Sam Lee makes this record public he’s going to find himself with a success story on his hands…
Fiona Talkington, BBC Radio 3 Late Junction
“Sam Lee: The heart of folk”
Erica Wagner, The Times
“A wonderful singer and fascinating character. He’s working with musicians in a very interesting and unusual way, his arrangements are unlike anything anyone has ever really heard before”
Joe Boyd
“The rising star of traditional English folksong”
The Daily Telegraph
“One of the most promising folk singers to emerge from the London scene this decade”
The Independent
“An extremely natural and charismatic performer. His modern, often trancelike arrangements of traditionals never fail to still a room.”
Timeout
“Ground of Its Own is wonderful. The singing is sublime and exquisite! Itʼs gentle and despairing, trancelike and tender. Strokes of genius there I think!”
Shirley Collins
“Sam Lee is one of very few to achieve a real emotional punch with moving simplicity”
