Sam Weber is a Portland-based producer and multi-instrumentalist drawing upon the tradition of the great American songsmiths. There’s an emotional, raw simplicity to Sam which, alongside his exceptional musicianship and deeply passionate voice, carries his timeless, clever songs. Not only a prolific songwriter, Sam is also a prolific producer and true guitar virtuoso, being one of the youngest musicians to be featured in Guitar Player Magazine.

Released October 2019, Sam’s third studio album, Everything Comes True, reached #86 on the NACC Top 200 Chart, #30 on NACC Canadian Chart and the music has garnered over 500,000 spins on Spotify. Sam’s recent release Get Free (2022) received praise from Bluegrass Situation, Folk Radio UK and many others.

Sam has toured North America as a headliner since 2013 and has opened for acts such as Feist, Bahamas, The Tragically Hip, Said the Whale, and Stars.

The live show is a passionate and heartfelt display of emotive songwriting fused with world-class musicianship and improvisation - in the vein of The Band, The Wood Brothers, and Gillian Welch.

Sam Weber performs predominately as a trio (guitar, bass, and drums), however, many configurations are possible.

“I think the song of the year is “Ex-Lover” by Sam Weber. The guy’s a hell of a songwriter, great musician, great guitarist... he’s going to do big things”

“You’re going to want to listen to this record.”

-Jason verlinde (Fretboard journal)

“[Weber] is an expert tunesmith, brimming with addictive, adventurous and confident pieces. Infused with deep wit and wisdom, Weber’s output is truly impressive. His guitar work is also killer, full of nuance, soul and a truly unique voice.... We’ll be hearing a lot more from Weber in the coming years and, more than likely, decades.”
