Sam Amidon Live - A GATECRASH at the Gate Theatre

Sam Amidon will release his new album Salt River on 24th January 2025, his first on River Lea Records. The Vermont native, who is now based in London, has collaborated with saxophonist and producer Sam Gendel to reinterpret and regenerate ten songs that he has gathered together as part of a decades-long quest to recontextualise what it means to sing folk songs or make folk music.

Sam is held in great regard by Irish audiences having toured Ireland many times over the course of his career which has seen the release of seven previous albums. Sam also recently starred in Michael Keegan-Dolan’s dance and theatre production Nobodaddy, which played as part of this year’s Dublin Theatre Festival.
