Sam Lee is a singer, folk song interpreter, conservationist, song collector and creator of live events. Lee founded The Nest Collective, which has shaken up the music scene, breaking boundaries between folk and contemporary music and inviting a new listenership while asking “what the messages in these old songs hold for us today”.
His latest critically acclaimed album, Old Wow, takes his work to yet another level. In 2021, Sam released his debut novel The Nightingale, notes on a songbird telling the epic tale of this highly endangered bird and its place in folklore, music and literature, throughout the millennia.
