Sam Sweeney Trio
About Sam Sweeney Trio
The Sam Sweeney Trio brings together three of the UK’s most compelling folk musicians to play music from across Sam’s discography: Sam Sweeney (violin), Ben Nicholls (double bass), and Louis Campbell (guitar).
Known for his expressive playing and bold musical vision, Sweeney leads the trio through richly textured arrangements of traditional and original material.
With Nicholls’ deep, resonant bass and Campbell’s innovative guitar work, the trio crafts a sound that is both grounded in English folk tradition and alive with contemporary energy.
The fiddler with the Midas touch. An English equivalent of the great Irish fiddle player Martin Hayes
