In mentioning the pool of songwriters and artists comprising today’s music scene Samantha Kearney represents the minority of women that have infiltrated the innovative, active and credible sector of the movement. In a nutshell she is an observant, world–aware and truth–speaking woman, backed–up by a strongly–held and competently wielded guitar.

At the age of 24, born and living in Birkenhead, Sam is in the early stages  of her musical life.  Spurned on by her love of music and lyric-writing she began playing guitar at 17.  Additional to this was her desire to learn and the realisation that an independent songwriter of the 21^st Century is far better equipped with the self-sufficient ability of accompanying her own music.

The main drive behind Sam’s musical output is the outlet it provides in terms of expression, creation, escapism and communication. She finds the art form extremely cathartic.  The performance aspect is equally significant for her due to the enjoyment she finds in entertaining people and the manner in which it thirst-quenches the introverted extrovert side of her personality. Sam has always had an immense passion for music and holds it high in importance based on its potency as an ultimate form of communication, soundtrack and mirror to life.

Samantha has a variety of gigs and musical escapades under her belt including Wimfest Liverpool 2005, Oxton Festival Birkenhead 2016/5,’Off the Record’ @ Zanzibar Liverpool and the inclusion of her song ‘Journey’ on a compilation CD by the Mixomatosis crew @ Bar Cava Liverpool, due for release in April 2006.
