   About Samantha


An eccentric young woman, with a set of truly beautiful songs she delivers with an innocence of a previous age. Her early morning voice sleepily walks you through a Fantasia of exotic moods, bizarre imagery and anachronistic melodies and ideas that sound ancient and fresh in the same breath. This is an outstanding artist of real class. You won’t be disappointed.

NME 7/10
Lighter than a Malteser in a flotation tank, Marais’ ethereal vocals fill rooms here with weightless, simple beauty.

The Sunday Telegraph ****
By far the best album of the week… It’s beguiling, melodic, imaginative, different and well worth a punt.

Uncut ***
Lovingly recreated approximations of 1960s English folk whimsy


Samantha's debut album 'The Peppermint Conspiracy' is out now and available on Amazon and Samantha Marais - The Peppermint Conspiracy

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace... 

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my blog): 
TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001 

Where traditions are not so rare; 
    Sea, country and works scent the air; 
A multitude of monuments, 
    Planted tubs and patterned pavements. 

The longish pedestrian malls; 
    The remnants of defensive walls; 
Historic buildings are a gauge 
    Of the respect for heritage. 

Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; 
    Estuaries guarded by shields; 
Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; 
    Romantic-ruin go-betweens. 

Rivers in parts licked by trees, 
    Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, 
And crossed by practical delights - 
    Varied spans, forming pleasing sights. 

Fine churches headed at Durham; 
    Football kits ad infinitum; 
Kept castles - one for study; 
    Masonry behind masonry. 

And, with moulding-works out that way, 
It’s somewhere for a longer stay..? 

(C) David Franks 2003
