Another return visit to the club for Serious Sam Barrett. He is still a hard touring, folk and country singer from down the road in Otley who plays honest, heartfelt self-penned and traditional songs on 12 string guitar and banjo. Sam continues to attract critical acclaim with some very positive reviews.
?The sustained brilliance of his playing is really something to behold.? Bob Harris, BBC Radio 2
"There's some real swagger to this" Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 2 Folk Show
?Songs that rattle with the ghosts of Appalachian folk, and southern blues, yet sound emphatically English.? Uncut Magazine
?Old before his years country-folk fellow who mixes intricate John Fahey finger-picking with confessional tales of dirty old Leeds? The Guardian.
?Excellent stripped back folk? Maverick Magazine
?His well crafted original songs are accompanied by his own sparkling clawhammer banjo or dextrous 12 srtringguitar picking.? -Froots magazine.
