Sam Bush y Paul Hoffman

I saw Sam Bush recently at the Watermelon Park Campground and was giddy with delight. The American bluegrass mandolin player is hugely talented and is considered in the music industry as the originator of the ‘Newgrass’ style. This is a sub genre of bluegrass music. His performance along with his band was a joy to see live.
His voice is typical of a Newgrass musician, country-esque, fast paced and fun. This also comes across within his vocals. His voice is straight talking and to the point which also coincides with his lyrics. Sam Bush sings about his hometown, and everyday situations. His personality is what truly makes his live shows magical, with songs such as “Circles around me” and “Howlin at he moon”.
Not only are his songwriting skills clever and musically amazing, but his mandolin playing is also awesome; they seemed effortless as he was up on stage. Sam interacts with his fans through telling little anecdotes inbetween songs describing his childhood, background of the songs which pleases his fans and here we get to see his personality better. This all makes for an awesome musical experience and one that I would highly recommend. His songs are easy listening with soft, smooth melodies.
