You know those wishes you have for one of your favourite musicians? A pivotal career moment? The dream gig that musician have for themselves? Yea… that happened. Sam Bradley performing at The Troubadour in London, his new EP just released, to a sold out crowd :)

To say the atmosphere was amazing would be an understatement. Every fan in the venue loved Sam and they made it known by singing along to Too Far Gone, hand clapping to the beat of Lights and loud applause at the end of each song. This was a celebration for Sam and everyone that had supported his music.


Sam performed most songs with his equally talented sister Grace Lindsey, and 3 band members. The gig was definitely a family affair, with their mother Lee Lindsey in the audience, and Sam and Grace performing Only Human, co-written by Lee. Another song from his new EP, Little Sister really shows off Sam’s vocal range. The performance of his EP’s title track Not Your Kind and the energetic performance (by Sam, Grace and the audience) of Bless Her Soul was a great way to persuade fans to purchase his EP as soon as they could, if they hadn't done so already that is.  A new song You Don’t Mean Nothing To Me was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone there.


The gig was a big success and gained Sam new fans as well as cementing his relationship with his loyal fanbase. Sam just gets better and better. I attended the gig with 2 first timers and they told me afterwards how much they enjoyed Sam’s music and would love to see him perform again in the future. 2 new fans made. Job done. ..until the next gig ;)

Sam Bradley Fan Reactions to Not Your Kind



"His voice is smooth like honey, yet crisp like a cool autumn day."

"NotYourKind on full volume, I am sure my neighbours love it already.."

"I am beyond excited&happy to have some new music by my friend,  @samueltwitt1 this will be on repeat"

"Not your kind is probably my fav song on the EP."

"sandwiched between Patty Griffin and OCMS.. sounds EXACTLY RIGHT!  @samueltwitt1 @iTunesMusic #EPNotYourKind"

"Wondering how often I can listen to #notyourkind on repeat on my 6 hour train ride today "

"Got my @samueltwitt1 new EP!  LOVIN!!!!!! "

"I recently discovered Sam Bradley at a Ryan Keen gig, and have never looked back since. This guy can write a song and compose a melody. A true showman live, with meaningful lyrics about family, religion, observations etc etc! Once you have heard him you will love him too. "Science Prevents Me" is a personal favourite, as is the beautiful "Only Human'. 

Covering different genres, Sam's genre is mixed but not mixed up! Giving you a flavour of everything he can do.

Buy the EP, and discover your new favourite singer/songwriter.

Good luck Sam!"

"This album feels too real. Only human is one of my favorites for its raw touch and perfect sound. The album is diverse and one you can enjoy listening to every track."

Fan Review


Sam Bradley - "Not Your Kind"

First and foremost, I'm a fan of Sam Bradley.  This is not news for anyone who knows me. I have planned vacations around his US Tour dates, and I have been known to leave my family for days at a time to see each and every one of his shows within a several hundred mile radius. Like I said....I'm a fan.

If you had asked me yesterday, I would have told you the only way to truly appreciate Sam's music is to see him live.  I have purchased his EP's and CD's and though I love them and listen to them A LOT, to me, there was something so much more connected between Sam and his music when you you have the opportunity to see him live. Beyond the fact that he is an engaging and quite funny entertainer, when Sam performs live he takes the audience right into that part of himself that the song came from. Whether he is playing the amusing "Passport" or the evocative  "Details" Sam always takes the audience right to "the place" with him.

That's what I would have said yesterday... today, with the release of Sam's "Not Your Kind" (available on iTunes today) Sam has given his fans, and the rest of the world, the live show experience of jumping into his music with him... in an EP.

To say that I was blown away by this wonderful offering from the young Mr. Bradley would be an huge understatement. I have heard some of these songs live... and though I was excitedly looking forward to owning them for myself.. I did not expect the impact this EP had on me.

I loved the country flavor given to the songs on this EP, but noted that Sam didn't leave his rocker side far away.  "Science Prevents Me" is an excellent example of the perfect blending of both the country and rock sides, the styles flowing into each other throughout the song. While the title track "Not Your Kind" is a sweet play of notes arranged with a solid country flair.  As does "Bless Her Soul" one of his newer songs on the EP.   It is an up tempo, full on country, that seems to speak of a female who just can't be stopped in her own pursuits, constantly changing, looking for the next thing.

Sam has always seemed, to this writer, to be an observer of all that goes on around him.  "Only Human"  is a song that beautifully  shows the observant side of this performer. He takes in the world around him, he sees more than most people, I think.

The absolute jewel on this EP, is "Little Sister".  It is difficult to describe with words the experience while listening to this song, except for possibly one, tears.  Many of Sam's fans have expressed that they feel a special connection to this song, perhaps because it seems to convey a universal feeling so many of us have experienced.  That feeling that we might have lost ourselves in a relationship.  The feeling that this was not what we had expected our lives to be, but maybe .. maybe things will change, if we stick with it. "Little Sister" reminds us, that though we may feel alone sometimes.... we aren't. If we could only find that one piece of ourselves that knows we can have, and deserve, better. 

With  "Not Your Kind" Sam Bradley has made the one connection I have been waiting for.  The one connection I knew he would get to.  He has brought his passion for his music, normally seen on stage, into the recording studio and given his fans their best listening experience yet, and reminded us all, despite the EP name, he really is our kind.
