Event information
his narrative-rich songwriting, which Uncut described as being “as penetrating as Richard Thompson’s best work”. For over 15 years, he has been stirring audiences from Camden to Canada, from major festivals to intimate clubs. He has been described as "the finest English-style fingerpicking guitarist of his generation," while Ivor Novello-winner Nitin Sawhney has praised his "killer voice."
With a discography that spans six solo albums and two releases with the folk-rock band False Lights, Sam’s music reflects a blend of traditional English folk, shape-note singing, and rock. Notable highlights in his career include a spellbinding performance on Later… with Jools Holland, where he played songs from his shape-note-inspired album The No Testament alongside renowned fiddler Sam Sweeney.
His latest album Silver Horizon, spent several weeks in the UK folk music Top 40. His live performances are nothing short of captivating, filled with the raw honesty, humour, and skilled musicianship that underscore his standing as one of contemporary folk’s brightest talents.
‘Sam Carter is a brilliant guitarist and songwriter who combines the observational with social comment and personal reflection’ (Songlines)
‘A singer who can hold the audience spellbound all by himself’ (BBC R2)
‘Really wonderful’ (Jools Holland)
