Биография

With the worldwide pandemic wrecking utter havoc upon the careers of many musicians, Samantha Martin & Delta Sugar elected to release the astonishingly powerful, funky and deeply soulful "The Reckless One", slated for November 20, 2020. Samantha Martin & Delta Sugar’s debut release, 2015’s "Send The Nightingale", was a stripped-down affair consisting of Martin, her two co-singers, and two guitars. For 2018’s "Run to Me", Martin elected to augment the core of Delta Sugar’s gospel-infused harmonies with a full rhythm section, piano, organ and an ever-so-soulful horn section. "The Reckless One" continues in the same trajectory, further expanding the palate of sounds with vibes, mellotron, Wurlitzer, Hammond and Farfisa organs plus strings. "Send the Nightingale" was a stunning achievement which was regularly featured on the CBC, topped the blues charts on Stingray radio and propelled the group onto the stages of all the major Canadian festivals and clubs. Continuing to build on the group’s steam rolling momentum, in 2019 "Run To Me" garnered another four Maples Blues nominations, a Juno nomination (Canada’s Grammy Awards) and paved the way for Samantha Martin & Delta Sugar’s assault on European club and concert stages. A dynamic front woman, she possesses a stunning voice that is capable of summoning up tidal waves of spine-tingling emotion in one instance while delicately bringing out the nuances of a gut-wrenching lyric in the next. It simply has to be heard to be believed.
