TESTIMONIALS

Here’s what Multi-Genre Pianist Singer – Play It Again Sam’s clients said:

Sam is the ultimate professional, who played fantastic sets at my wedding which took place in august 2007.she took the time to find out what we really wanted to make our day complete, and i would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone.she is talented and a wonderfully warm lady whom it was an absolute pleasure to deal with. My husband and i regularly eat at the living room in leeds on sundays and always enjoy sams varied sets, infact this was where we first heard her play.
Private Client

A young talent whose music is soaked in sophistication yet hot enough to fire all emotions.
Daily Mail

The cool jazzy music has a harder undercurrent, mirroring sam’s slinky voice. Real talent doesn’t come along often but Sam is the goods.
French Radio

Her music stretches from blues and rock through to salsa, African rhythms and hip-hop. She invites you to dream, creating a sound like a velvet carpet.
Reinsche Post, Germany

I have organised over 30 international blues festivals in the uk and europe., including the national burnley blues festival and the great british rhythm & blues festival since the late 1980’s. i have known sam payne as a performer since she was about 15 yrs old. she is without doubt one of the best female piano based blues influenced, performers in the uk. her own material is excellent, she is one of the musician’s who could have made it to the top of the music scene aka katy melua but she just has not made the right business connections so far . i have no hesitation in recommending the quality of her performances.
Private Client

Sam was great, we had a couple of singers in our party, so it worked really well having the spare mic…so that was fantastic. Thanks as always
