Sam Lee - Songdreaming TOur - Machynlleth

Sam Lee plays a unique role in the British music scene. A Mercury Prize nominated singer, highly inventive and original arranger, folksong interpreter, passionate conservationist, song collector, and creator of live events, his work has consistently challenged our ideas of what traditional music can be. Sam’s approach shatters the boundaries between the old and the new, breathing fresh life into timeless songs and inviting us to rediscover their power.

His journey began with the groundbreaking debut album Ground Of Its Own in 2012, when he dramatically reworked old songs with a striking blend of traditional and contemporary sounds. The album, made possible by a prestigious Arts Foundation award, was short-listed for the Mercury Music Prize and marked Sam’s immediate impact on the music scene.

Following this early success, Sam continued to innovate with releases like The Fade In Time and Old Wow, each further proving his knack for melding heritage with modernity, earning him accolades such as a Songlines Award for Artist of the Year and recognition at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.
