Musical roots took hold in Tucson in the '70s, where he played guitar and bass in country rock and Western swing bands. In 1976 he moved to Los Angeles, joined the Shire Brothers trio, and ran an 8-track demo and video studio on Hollywood Boulevard. Sam and his wife Vivian moved to a small farm in rural Vermont in 1987 to raise their family, where he picked up his Martin and began a solo career. He has honed his skills on the stages of festivals, taverns, ski lodges, and farmer's markets throughout Vermont, New Hampshire, and Minnesota.Doors open at 5:00 for a social hour at 33 Bridge Street in Bellows Falls on November 15th.

CAUTION: "Giving Tuesday" is coming up on November 27. Gird your loins. We're not going to stop you from making a tax-deductible donation to support Stage 33 Live on that day or any other day, but we're specifically not going to succumb to participating in the frenzied bombardment that you're about to get nailed with. Apparently it's a pretty successful push for some nonprofits, but we think it's a little gross.
