Биография

THE GOUDIES (GOW-dees) are South Wales based, husband and wife folk-country duo — Sam & Beth Goudie. Their close harmonies and honest sound have drawn comparison with the ‘California Sound’ of 60s/70s Laurel Canyon and Americana artists such as The Civil Wars and Gillian Welch & David Rawlings. As singers and songwriters they explore the relationship of love, faith, and the spaces in between — always ending in hope. The Goudies have been featured at the British Country Music Festival, on BBC Introducing, and Absolute Music Country as well as winning the Amazing Radio weekly audition and being selected as Richer Unsigned Artist of the Week. They brought their solo projects together at the start of 2021, starting a weekly live stream (Tiny Show Tuesday) for their friends from their then home in Wimborne, Dorset. They played old songs and country covers, and debuted new songs they’d written together. Their debut EP, When This is Over, was released in July 2021. Recorded with just a single microphone in a live room, the songs are an honest reflection on a time when everything was stripped away and we found out the things that matter. In 2022,  after a year exploring where to live, The Goudies moved back to their beloved South Wales, making their family home and reconnecting with their roots in the local music scene. From here they are steadily building a loyal following around their emotionally articulate songwriting and moving live performances.
