Sometimes with live music as the band gets bigger, you lose a bit of something. It becomes less raw, less spontaneous and often in the case of rock music, a bit more boring really. Luckily Sam Roberts is able to guide his band confidently through their sets, utilising the added texture of the larger ensemble without losing any of the raw energy. This is why their live shows are an absolute smash.
Sam Roberts and his band are air tight and play with a precision that could only come from experience. They excite audiences with up tempo rock numbers, always controlled by Sam’s enigmatic stage performance. He manages to keep a suave composure as he leads with his voice, as smooth as it is gnarly it is the perfect voice for rock. But there’s a maturity to the set that stops it being just a throwaway rock show. The songs are well written and are likely to make a lasting impression, an emotional connection that will continue well after the music has stopped. So that’s what you get with the Sam Roberts Band, a mature, polished rock show that will charm you whilst getting your adrenaline pumped – go see them soon!
