American Country Music has influenced
Samson from his growing years to adulthood, and in particular
Merle Haggard, Charlie Pride and Hank Williams. Through
this influence Samson developed a love for singing and song
writing and started to play the guitar at 13 yrs old.
With
backyard sing-a-longs and Garage Jam-sessions he soon began
to appear at Parties and went on to support Artists. Samson
played with such artists as Roger Knox and Greg Kernihgan.
Later Samson went on to win the
first Talent Quest that he entered. In 1999 he stepped into
the festival circuit of the Country Music Club Scene and
in 2000 was in the semi-finals at the Qld Champion of Champions. |
