About the event
Dynamic sets that span intense balladry to soulful Blues and Jazz, with influences from Robert Johnson, Wes Montgomery, and Tom Waits, Sam Jefferson is the 'consummate songwriter who brings a story to life.' - BBC Radio Scotland. At the heart of Sam’s music is an astonishing rawness and authenticity; one which allows him to seamlessly blend the sound of his own roots with those that grew Blues and Jazz in America.
Sam's vitality and ability to build up the sound of a driving combo with layered loops, then strip it back to its rawest components, has been engaging audiences across the UK.
'Really fine picking, voice, and song-writing. Sam is carrying Blues tradition on in his own way' - Toby Walker
'Outstanding Musicianship' - Ralph McTell
