Event Details
Manchester based singer songwriter, Sam Jefferson, is steeped in the folklore of his ancestors who worked the coal pits of Yorkshire’s West Riding by day, and performed in music halls at night.
With dynamic sets that span intense folk balladry to soulful blues and jazz, Sam’s virtuosic fluidity is always in service of the story behind the song.
At the heart of Sam’s music is an astonishing rawness and authenticity; one which allows him to seamlessly blend the sound of his own roots with those that grew Blues and Jazz in America.
The way that he writes and plays within these traditions could make it appear as though the Mississippi ran alongside the coal seams of Yorkshire.
