Sam Wedgwood is a multi-talented, versatile musician. Despite being only 26 years old his profile and achievements during this relatively short time-span read more like those of an accomplished professional who has been in the business for decades.
For almost a year now Sam has been taking a well-earned sabbatical from music writing in order to tour the world with Jamie Cullum as a “multi-tasker” guitarist, trumpeter and vocalist.
Most musicians would have probably been more than contented to continue with the rock and roll lifestyle, playing with a successful band to audiences of up to 30,000 all around the globe. But at the end of April last year, Sam came home to England to focus on the completion of his debut album
The album has been well worth the wait… “Small Print” is the true embodiment of Sam’s varied, extensive musical tastes and influences; it combines a modern acoustic vibe with some funky jazz beats, some dance numbers and real soul throughout. Strong, rich vocals are sustained across the range of sounds which come together to create a real masterpiece which would appeal to any discerning ear. Every single track on the album could be a hit in its own right.
Sam Wedgwood is a professional musician and a perfectionist. He will make a success of every musical journey he embarks upon, and we’re delighted that you’re here along side him as he takes the next big step.
