Sam Dunkley is the dynamic new talent emerging in the world of folk music creating his own unique blend of traditional acoustic pop. At the age of 23 he already has a vast amount of performance experience. He has spent the last 5 years finding a style and repertoire that appeal to traditional 'folkies' whilst interesting a whole new generation. Sam sings about real stories; real emotions; real people. He tries to make a real connection with his audience so that they actually listen to the songs, rather than just hearing them. Sam has performed floor spots around the country and support sets for artists including Ric Saunders, Steve Tilston and Harvey Andrews at folk clubs including The Red Lion, Birmingham and The Grove, Leeds. After seeing Sam perform,
veteran Brummie Folk Legend, Harvey Andrews said, 'Sam Dunkley gets to
the heart of the songs he sings - so will you’.
