SAM LEE - BASSIST
SAM LEE
PROFESSIONAL BASSIST
Hi, I'm Sam Lee from Brighton (UK), I am a passionate and creative Bassist and co-writer with years of live performance and studio experience.
I'm currently enjoying success playing with James Marriott. We're a band on the rise, and we've had some amazing experiences since we formed in late 2022. 2023 saw a string of successful gigs including The Royal Albert Hall for the Teenage Cancer Trust, headlined for BBC Introducing, completed our first sell-out UK tour 'Bitter Tongues', done our first festival season, culminating with headlining at the Leeds Festival and opened on the Main Stage East at the Reading Festival, also we also had the pleasure of a sell-out Australian tour.
Our first Album, Are we there yet?, was released in November 23 and debuted at #17 in the Official UK Album Chart, #2 in the Official UK Independent Album Chart, and #1 in the Official UK Download Chart.
We recently completed the first leg of our 'Are we there yet?' UK & EU Tour (here's a REVIEW of our Bristol show), with dates just announced for our rescheduled shows and a new Liverpool date has been added for June.
I'm so proud of what we've achieved so far, and I can't wait to see what the future holds for us. We're a band with a lot of passion, and we're always looking to push ourselves to the next level. We hope you'll join us on our journey!
I have also collaborated with other amazing artists such as ALY, The Pickpockets, Nicolas & the Outlanders,Claire Atherton and Luan Mei, please feel free to check out the videos and tracks below.
When I am not playing, you can find me streaming on Twitch.tv.

"Sam has played R&B, Soul and Jazz styled bass for me multiple times in not only performance settings but also professional studio recordings. He’s always punctual , has a great work ethic and picks up songs and structures so quickly. I’m definitely keen to get him involved in my future projects!"
