‘You don’t want your baby to be ugly’: Sam Kaiser on success of new EP

“Over the summer, Kaiser released Harper’s Sorrow, which he described as “a little quarantine album with some songs I had stewing around for a bit.” If you listen to his stuff, you’ll quickly notice he’s being very humble here—the tender acoustics and rustic self-harmonies in his work could give Mumford & Sons a run for their money.”

Sam Kaiser’s Meditative Folk Thesis On The Fleeting Nature of Good Things

“It would be simple enough to call Sam’s music ‘Folk,’ and it is. Sam Kaiser’s sound comes from somewhere deeper in the history of the genre. His lo-fi acoustic recording, deceptively simple lyrics and singsong melodies bring to mind the pioneers of Folk like Woody Guthrie or Pete Seeger. It is folk music in the very literal sense. It is human music.”

Track of the Day: Sam Kaiser “Good Things” (2020)

“Kaiser’s sound is folksy and intricate, all bound together by a soulful voice that belies his youth... “Good Things” might just be the salve we all need at the tail end of a truly difficult year. It’s a melancholy musing on the fleeting little pockets of joy that pepper our days, and a gentle reminder that in the midst of all this chaos and uncertainty, there’s still a few good things left – however small.”

SAM KAISER - DIFFERENT FIRES

“…a nice live sound, as if he were singing right next to me. I also thought his talent on guitar in relation to his songwriting, melodies and embellishing songs with backing vocals were pretty damn good for someone who’s been playing only a few years.”
