Mercury Prize nominated folk singer Sam Lee presents music from his new album Songdreaming.
Sam Lee plays a unique role in the British music scene. A highly inventive and original singer, folk song interpreter, passionate conservationist, and live event creator, Sam’s creative influence continually disrupts the mould of folk music.
March 2024 sees the release of Sam Lee’s fourth studio album, ‘Songdreaming’. His highly-praised previous release, 2020’s Old Wow, was described as ‘A dazzling fusion of nature and song’ (The Observer).
Sam’s music has its roots in traditional folk song, but imagines it anew, creating a sound rich in melody and invention. His lyrics focus on the perilous state of the natural world, something that has informed his work since his debut.
