Wintertides by Sam Wilson

‘Wintertides’ is inspired by the coastal landscapes of Canada; written during the winter of 2022 on the east coast in Scotsburn and the west coast at Lena Residency, on Galiano Island, it is inspired by contrasting landscapes and the collaboration of bi-coastal communities featuring Jen Yakamovich and Geordie Hart.

‘It’s a highly unusual jazz album, and one that departs from most jazz conventions in significant ways, but that never seems to get old in the listening.’ - Rick Anderson on Wintertides

‘This trio creates a sort of sonic photo album that demands repeated listening' - Davide Reid on Wintertides

“Sometimes on electric guitar, sometimes on acoustic guitar, Sam Wilson, throughout the record, demonstrates a very singular narrative expertise, which, however, made us think from time to time of Ralph Towner is certainly an original voice that we would like to hear on stage at home.” - Yves Dorison on Wintertides

Sam Wilson is a guitarist-composer whose practice focuses on creating instrumental music for improvisers. Her current artistic muse is wild spaces and site-specific responses, evident by her latest release Wintertides.
