Samantha Fish

Grammy Award nominated blues rock sensation Samantha Fish stops off in Frome next summer!

For Samantha Fish, live performances are where her music truly comes to life. “Making albums is one of my favourite things to do; it’s a chance to reinvent myself and my sound,” she says. “But the stage is where we bring the songs to life. I feel I connect the most with my audience from the stage. There’s something uniquely special about that energy — raw, unpolished, with no big fixes or edits. It’s about what you can do with the moment, and I think capturing that is crucial.”

2024 has been a standout year for Samantha Fish, highlighted by a Grammy nomination alongside collaborator Jesse Dayton for their album Death Wish Blues. The record debuted at #1 on the Billboard Blues Charts, holding that spot for three consecutive weeks, marking Fish’s fifth chart-topping album.

Over the summer, she toured with Slash on his S.E.R.P.E.N.T. Tour and opened for The Rolling Stones during the final stop of their North American tour. This fall, she’s set to join the Experience Hendrix tour, sharing the stage with blues contemporaries like Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Eric Johnson, and Christone “Kingfish” Ingram.

With a relentless work ethic, Fish performs nearly 200 high-energy shows a year, ensuring her unique blend of raw blues continues to captivate ever-growing audiences. Samantha Fish has gained widespread recognition gracing the covers of Guitar World and Vintage Guitar and receiving critical acclaim from major publications. The New York Times describes her as “one of the most promising young blues performers working,” praising her punchy vocals and energetic guitar work.

No Depression lauds her versatility, stating, “Samantha Fish can take you on a journey through country, blow your blues away, or slam you with some raucous rawk.” Garden & Gun hails her as “one of the new guitar greats,” and Guitarist Magazine agrees that Fish “is a force to be reckoned with.”
