TICKETS AND INFO
In the somewhere between now, then and soon Sam Walker falls through dreamscapes, imagined lands and different realities. Stumbling into rolling, sweat-drenched, dancefloor-pumping grooves and rocking singalong tunes along the way.
Soaring melody, new stories and tender twists meet elastic vocal chords, boundless energy, stunning visuals and much multi-instrumentalism in The Sweetness of the Gathering Night.
This show is the culmination and bringing together of many different experiences, dreams and memories.

One Man Band Festival, Montreal, Canada
Wet Montreal yesterday. Persistent sheets of drenching fun slanting in on a warm wind for the whole day.
After taking the ill advised decision to explore the city by bicycle in the morning I had a radio interview booked on CJLO student radio at 5pm to promote my two shows today (Sat 17) at the One Man Band fest.
I eventually arrived late, in a screeching cab, at the radio studio on the huge and deserted Concordia university campus having first gone to the wrong University.
I was being interviewed on “The Commonwealth Conundrum” – (thats the name of the show, not the topic of conversation) with the lovely and extremely supportive Rebecca Munroe and Danny Payne.
Amazingly it turned out Danny is from Brighton and i went to college with his brother. in fact i helped his brother move house about 10 years ago and still have his white electric guitar that he was chucking out. Suddenly the world seems tiny again. A great night ensued after at a byo booze, greek owned, Indian restaraunt with Danny and his mates, then on to catch a few one woman bands at the Casa del Popolo. Then home happy, soaked and silly to my sofa cushion bed. Today i play 2 shows. Here we go!

en route to Nurnberg DE
Pylons hold steady in their long lines of duty
Standing steel giants with feet in the field
Lonesome but full of a strange man made beauty
Sentinels holding the power we wield
Forest is creeping up close to the roads
Defiantly green under poisonous dust
Truckers in laybys sleep sunday with loads
Late evening sky turns the colour of rust
We in our bus roll through Deutschland in spring
Looking out windows , laughing and loud
Hitting the cities to strum, pluck and sing
Breezing on through in this small restless cloud

Feet up on the dashboard
Mind up in the clouds
Riding through the flatlands
Burning up the roads
Hendrix on the hi fi
Free and flowing funk
Drowsy dreamy shut eye
Passing roadside junk
Lost again to travel
Caught up in the flow
Out where life is simple
5 hours till the show
