+ Sam Grassie
"A rising star in the world of trad folk..." The Line of Best Fit
Traversing both traditional and contemporary folk music, Scottish-born, London-based fingerstyle guitarist and songwriter Sam Grassie has been making a name for himself on the indie circuit as both a captivating player and potent songwriter. While such tenacity on the acoustic guitar owes much to the playing of Jansch et al, his debut EP Sandwood — a flurry of woodwind, sax, drones, and double bass — carves out a sound of his very own. The record has been championed by the BBC, NTS Radio, KLOF Radio, Wilco Band, Shindig Mag and Clash Music, leading to UK tours supporting Daisy Rickman, Gently Tender, Naima Bock, and The Babe Rainbow. Following a spring residency at Broadside Hacks MOTH Club Grassie was booked to perform at Latitude’s "In the Woods" and Green Man’s Walled Garden Stage. 2025 will see the release of his first album, where alongside original material he marries celtic melodies with the rhythms of desert blues.
