His first musical experiences were playing bluegrass with his uncles and cousins at family get-togethers, and learning guitar from his dad. He honed his technical skills on the banjo as a student at Santa Fe University of Art and Design, where he focused on exploring its cultural significance and history by performing in the Balkan/Middle-Eastern Music Ensemble, studying traditional Ugandan music, and West African drumming. He was also invited to play with The Spirit of Uganda, an international touring group of traditional Ugandan music and dance. You can see Sam performing with a number of bands all over the United States including Meadow Mountain, Masontown, Grace Clark Band, David Burchfield, and filling in for Bennet Sullivan with Ben Sollee. Sam has always had a passion for collaboration and lifting up other artists. His ability to listen closely, his commitment to fair treatment, and his desire for the strengths of each band member to shine, all make him a strong sideperson. Now, Sam is using these skills to step out of the role of a side person and venture into leading a band of his own. Born into the sonic arms of folk, bluegrass, and old country music, Emma Rose grew up wanting to listen to anything but that- driving her through the lands of indie folk, dream pop, R&B, and eventually right back to her roots. Through such exploration, she's developed her own sound with flavors of all. Ethereal vocals and dreamy lyrics dance on top of soft guitar soundscapes to create an experience of overall mellow- sparking curiosity of oneself and the emotions that come with diving into the human experience. The concert will take place on Lost City’s outdoor patio at its RiNo location (3459 Ringsby Ct.). Seating options include tables, benches and individual seats. Lost City will offer food and drink to enjoy during the shows including cocktails, wine, beer, and snacks from chef Silvia Hernandez. Food and drinks will be served from a walk-up window to minimize contact throughout the venue. Parking is free - please park in the overflow lot on the southwest side of the Taxi complex and avoid parking in any spots marked for residents.
