Thanks for listening!

Serious Sam Barrett

Here's someone to get excited about. Serious Sam Barrett plays rough and raw heartflet bluegrass music. It's the music of hard drinking mountain men, except Sam's from Yorkshire.

Sense of place comes through loud and proud in these songs, and Sam sings in an honest northern accent without hamming it up. This brings an authenticity to his music so necessary in this genre. It's not po-faced or purist though, it's just right and it makes his songs all the more wonderful.

Sam calls his music 'Yorkshirecana' and I can't think of a more apt description.

Hear Sam on myspace

There's an album out soon, with some fantastic screen printed artwork. You can view more of this on Sam's blog.
