Sam isn't a singer, so much as a storyteller; that is his charm and his magic.  - Helen Mitchell, FATEA

​

The Texas troubadour delivers a storytelling masterclass

Coming 15 years after his debut album, ‘Mercy’, Sam Baker has released his first live album and ‘Horses and Stars’ is a corker of a record that captures everything that is great about his live performances.

​

If you like your music with grit in its belly and a cast of characters to match any backstreet boozer, this might be the introduction you’ve been looking for.

Give Sam Baker a listen.

- T. Bebedor, Dancing About Architecture

​

one of the greatest Texan storytellers

- Remo Ricaldone, Lonestar Time

​

This is one of the most remarkable albums we’ve had in some time. Baker half sings and half talks and plays gentle electric guitar, but his songs tell a powerful story of normal folk and it has a real power.
