Carter Sampson, hoping to be more lucky ...........


She calls herself "lucky". We would like to blame it all on talent and charisma.
Carter Sampson will be touring Holland and UK to promote her new CD release LUCKY in May

Due to public demand 5 of the best songs from “WILDER SIDE”, together with 5 audience favourites from her 2012 album “Mockingbird Sing” have now been collected for the first ever Carter Sampson vinyl release.

Now, 2 years later, Carter Sampson returns with 10 new tracks that include crowd pleasers like Rattlesnake Kate and Queen of the Silver Dollar. A great mix of originals and well-chosen covers.
The enthusiasm of Carter and her players to share these new recordings with us just bursts out of the speakers full energy!

Carter Sampson burst onto the European Alt-country/Americana scene with the release of her 2016 album WILDER SIDE.
 It was immediately propelled into the Euro Americana Chart and ended up as the No.3 album in the EAC year’s end list.
Since then her career has been steadily on the rise: 8 very successful European tours within 12 months brought her to Italy, Holland, Ireland and the United Kingdom and saw her conquer audiences at pop venues like Paradiso Amsterdam and renowned folk clubs but also bigger crowds at festivals like Maverick and Glastonbury in UK, Kilkenny Roots in Ireland, Naked Song and Take Root in the Netherlands and Buscadero Day or Accadia Blues in Italy.

All in all, Carter feels she’s “LUCKY” and, co-produced with Jason Scott, she now deliver a wonderful album with that name. 7 mostly upbeat (co-)originals, including Rattlesnake Kate (an absolute crowd pleaser) and 3 well-chosen covers. Shell Silverstein’s Queen of The Silver Dollar is a regular in Carter’s sets and Kalyn Fay’s Tulsafeels like a state anthem to proud Okies.
The album was recorded with a stellar cast of Okie-musicians like Kyle Reid, John Calvin Abney and Jared Tyler and shows the continuous growth of this charming and talented Okie girl.

Sample tracks from LUCKY out May 25:



By public demand, a compilation of previous albums was released in Europe which included her signature song “Queen Of Oklahoma” as the title track alongside all-time favorites like “Be My Wild Wood Flower” and “Sanctuary”.

Note, this is the digital version of the Vinyl release! 
Limited to only 300 copiesA WILDER AND ANOTHER SIDE” by Carter Sampson is bound to become a collector’s item any time soon…..better buy 2 maybe!
