Sam Wilson • Wintertides

 

Sam Wilson is a guitarist-composer whose practice focuses on creating instrumental music for improvisers. Her current artistic muse is wild spaces and site-specific responses, evident by her latest release Wintertides.



‘Wintertides’ is inspired by the coastal landscapes of Canada; written during the winter of 2022 on the east coast in Scotsburn and the west coast at Lena Residency, on Galiano Island, it is inspired by contrasting landscapes and the collaboration of bi-coastal communities featuring Jen Yakamovich and Geordie Hart.

‘It’s a highly unusual jazz album, and one that departs from most jazz conventions in significant ways, but that never seems to get old in the listening.’ - Rick Anderson on Wintertides

‘This trio creates a sort of sonic photo album that demands repeated listening' - Davide Reid on Wintertides

“Sometimes on electric guitar, sometimes on acoustic guitar, Sam Wilson, throughout the record, demonstrates a very singular narrative expertise, which, however, made us think from time to time of Ralph Towner is certainly an original voice that we would like to hear on stage at home.” - Yves Dorison on Wintertides

Es un álbum de jazz muy inusual, que se aleja de la mayoría de las convenciones del jazz de manera significativa, pero que nunca parece envejecer en la escucha'. - Rick Anderson sobre Wintertides

Este trío crea una especie de álbum de fotos sonoro que exige escuchas repetidas' - Davide Reid sobre Wintertides

«A veces a la guitarra eléctrica, a veces a la guitarra acústica, Sam Wilson, a lo largo del disco, demuestra una pericia narrativa muy singular, que, sin embargo, nos hizo pensar de vez en cuando en Ralph Towner es sin duda una voz original que nos gustaría escuchar en el escenario de casa.» - Yves Dorison sobre Wintertides
