BIOGRAPHY
Sam Densmore has a new single and music video coming soon! 2019 will be a busy year, with tour dates throughout the Pacific NW, Alaska, and Europe!
So what would you do if there wasnt any tomorrow? Would you ride naked through the streets of the town on a scooter? Or would you round up some friends, head to the local bar, and live it up as loudly and as boldly as you could? The world may or may not be ending for the characters in the video for Damn The Consequences, the latest single from Oregon folk-rocker Sam Densmore but theyre sure acting like theyre at their final party. Shown on giant karaoke screens, Densmore eggs them on in song, encouraging them to imbibe and disregard any warnings their bodies are sending them.
As always with Sam Densmore, the message is more ambiguous than it first seems. Yes, Damn The Consequences the first single from his forthcoming EP Black Velvet Unicorn - is a terrific party number: its upbeat, bright, and confidently sung, and a departure from the more reflective material on his 2017 debut full-length Open Marriage. As much as Densmores narrator craves the escape of sweet intoxication, its pretty clear that he realizes that tomorrow and a heck of a hangover is coming. Thats Sam Densmore: willful enough to throw caution to the wind, but wise enough to expect some self-inflicted wounds.
That broad perspective has made Densmore one of the most acclaimed new voices working in a city and a state renowned for its offbeat, adventurous songwriters. Open Marriage which addressed the deterioration of Densmores relationship in harsh, frank, and frequently funny language was met with ecstatic reviews in Portland and beyond. After touring Europe solo in 2017, he came home, wrote all new songs, and revamped his sound and his band to include Paul Paresa (WORTH/Sweet & Juicy) on Keyboards and Backing Vocals, Joey Harmon (Bootes Void/Tango Alpha Tango) on Drums, and Cory West (Liquid Light) on Bass.. His new band features a more electric, high-energy pop-rock vibe. With Black Velvet Unicorn, Sam Densmore is ready to share this new energy with the world.
On camera, however, hes the same wry presence hes always been. In the Damn The Consequences clip, hes both master of ceremonies and a dispassionate commentator, walking the streets with his guitar case and earbuds in, part of the town but detached from it, too. Not so for his friends, who select his music joyfully (and maybe a bit drunkenly) at the local karaoke bar. When Densmore appears to sing along with them, their reaction is priceless.
Sam has released a video single titled 'Wide Eyed Tripper' from his full length effort titled Open Marriage. It's had over 12,000 views since it's release in Oct 2016.
Sam's songs have been placed in the Showtime TV series 'Shameless' and the film 'Bear City'. He's also previously released 4 albums with his former band, Silverhawk.
Sam's currently preparing for tour dates in Oregon, Washington, Montana, Alaska, Europe and beyond in 2019. Set lists include songs from his upcoming EP release, Black Velvet Unicorn, new songs, and songs from his previous releases.
