  • Description

    A startlingly perceptive and self-assured young singer and guitarist from the English midlands, Sam Carter has spent the last few years busily honing his craft both as a writer and performer, studying guitar with Martin Simpson and touring with Bellowhead whilst holding down his post as Emerging Artist in Residence at London's Southbank Centre. Armed with a 'killer voice' (Nitin Sawhney) and the ability to play his guitar 'like a harp' (Time Out), as well as an unerring ability to put his personal experiences into a wider perspective, the east London-based songsmith is now set to make his mark with his debut album 'Keepsakes'.
    Tracks: Yellow Sign / Pheasant / Station Road / Oh Dear, Rue The Day / Captain / Dew / Fight / Hired Hands / Taxi / Spill Those Secrets
