Press release: Samantha Fish @ Wylam Brewery - October 25

(Press release) Rock guitar dynamo Samantha Fish and outlaw country badass Jesse Dayton have joined forces for an upcoming album of collaborative music, due out in May 2023 via Rounder Records. In December, two cover songs and accompanying videos will be released in conjunction with four special concerts in the USA.  

Before her U.S. tour dates with Jesse Dayton, Samantha will embark on her own headline nationwide tour of the UK from October 15-27 with special guests Wille & The Bandits.  

An award-winning singer, songwriter, and lead guitarist, Samantha Fish has released six albums over the course of her acclaimed career, with 2021’s Faster and 2019’s Kill or Be Kind both appearing on Rounder Records. “It’s not pure rock and roll, it’s not pure blues, it’s not pure soul, it’s not pure pop — it’s a mixture of everything,” she says of her genre-bending sound, which has regularly taken Fish around the world. A road warrior, she performs 200 shows yearly, both domestically and abroad. Tickets for Samantha’s UK tour dates are available HERE   and HERE. 

(Lance): I've just finished reading Bill Bryson's book Notes From a Small Island during which he takes a leisurely, occasionally, drunken, trip around the British Isles. He does it in a logical and humorous style usually managing to get from  A to B without detouring via X, Y and Z.

Fish's itinerary doesn't follow the same pattern as Bryson's. Thus we go from Oxford to Manchester to Brighton to Edinburgh to Wolverhampton to Glasgow to Southampton to Nottingham to Cardiff to Newcastle to London to Bath and then across the Atlantic to maybe Canada to Mexico to Brasil to Rhode Island. Then again, maybe US tour managers regard the distance from Glasgow to Southampton (430 miles) as a trip to the shopping mall. Whatever, Wylam Brewery (on Oct. 25) is a lot easier to get to and you won't regret it - Lance
