London Sold Out

London, what an evening! This sold out show was full of emotion, ritual and magic. Thank you so much to everyone for making the evening so incredibly memorable. So much goes into curating both the sonic and visual landscapes of each of these performances entirely ourselves, but the profundity by which they are met has touched us so deeply, and we feel more compelled than ever to continue this incredible journey of showcasing our vision of uncompromising artistry.

To share this world with our band, and to continue to fuel our live creations thanks to the support and blessings of our growing audiences gives so much scope for us to continue pushing the boundaries of our work, and reinforces the power of music, connection and feeling.

We feel equally honoured to share the stage with the incredible ‘Pillow’ who have continued to deliver one of the most profoundly moving sets, which has set the scene so beautifully for each evening.

Tomorrow, we return to Bristol to The Mount Without, before we continue home to Pembrokeshire on Tuesday, Stroud on Wednesday with the wonderful Daniel Inzani and finally the wondrous Dartington Hall with Dartington Arts on Thursday!

Low Ticket Warning

Low ticket warning! Tickets are running low for Brighton, London and Wales. The other tickets are all selling fast, so don’t hesitate to purchase yours.

Thank you to the wonderful Japanese Ban Ban Ton Ton for the insightful write upon our eponymous album:

“Recorded in Samana’s studio in rural Wales, housed in a cottage which they refurbished themselves via traditional techniques, the production and playing continues to display an intimacy and tightness that reflects the pair’s incredible bond. The songs like some healing ceremony conducted by soulmates. Lost in each other and shielded from the often negative distractions of the outside world by their love and the act of creation. This is the root of their music’s pure, primal power.”

Earlier this year, Samana – Rebecca Rose Harris and Franklin Mockett released their third full-length self-titled album (reviewed here) that explored mythic landscapes, forgotten memories, and the innate search for freedom and peace. Alongside a new live video of them performing Two Wrongs, they are announcing a special all-artist curated November Tour following their sold-out UK ‘In Tune With The Infinite Tour’ earlier this year.

So excited to be playing on the bill of the Wanderpsyc Festival at The Cornish Bank this November!

The time is upon us! NEXT FRIDAY, we kick off the ‘In Tune With The Infinite’ Tour in Margate at the ARK before hitting the road the following week.

We have been dumbfounded with the number of requests as to when we will be coming to the north, and we assure you all that we will be opening up our performances next year. As a venture, running these DIY performances, where we work closely with interesting unique spaces around the UK, and set up our own rig in the round, has been such a testament to the power of curating a dream: A dream which has been met with such profundity by all those who have joined us in the liminal realms of creation and sharing.

This will be the last opportunity to witness the ‘In Tune With The Infinite’ Tour before we close this chapter and look to pastures anew, so if you’ve not got tickets, be sure to grab them while you can. We will be releasing “Two Wrongs Live” this Friday, which marks the the last video of our string of live excerpts from the Summer Tour.

With gratitude

Support act 'Pillow' announced for dates

We are so excited to announce that the breathtaking ‘Pillow’ will be supporting us for the Brighton, London, Bristol, Wales and Totnes show during the ‘In Tune With The Infinite’ tour. A little about Pillow: "The music captures the richness of a classical tone, whilst retaining the freedom of improvisation and the storytelling of folk like melodies. Sighting influence from artists such as Nick Drake, Jonny Greenwood, and Max Richter to name a few, Pillow embarks on telling their own story of how sounds can emerge and give meaning to life’s experiences"

We are delighted to announce that we will be supporting John Francis Flynn at the Royal Welsh College in Cardiff on the 2nd November

November Tour

We’re so excited to be bringing the' ‘In Tune With The Infinite Tour’ back on the road this November!

"SAMANA's music is centred around an emotionally raw and magnetic delivery of a shamanic and cinematic proportion, offering a passage to transcend into worlds unseen. Evolving along multi-disciplinary lines, Samana possess a unique spirit born from a nomadic lifestyle, a participation in Celtic ceremonies and their deep affiliation with the natural world. The duo own a creative, analogue production house born from their Georgian small-holding in the deep corners of the Welsh Countryside, from which is born their anthropological excavations, conjuring layered narratives that address concepts of dreamtime, death, transcendence and collective consciousness."

November Tour

After the beautiful success of our sold out tour in June, we’re hitting the road in November to bring ‘The In Tune With The Infinite’ tour back across the UK. We can’t wait to experience these evenings of profound transformation with you!

Thank You!

WOW! What an incredibly profound journey the ‘In Tune With The Infinite’ tour was for us and for all of those who came along! We’ve been so deeply touched by all the heartfelt words of the audiences, and the countless messages we have since received. These evenings have been astounding, full of an ethereal, evanescent energy with emotions encircling each room like a otherworldly river carrying us collectively into a profound metamorphosis. It’s such an exciting model in supporting grass roots artistry and has been a monumental achievement for us to have sold out all the tickets we published for all four venues and to have been blessed with standing ovations for every performance. Words can’t quite express how full our hearts are and how deeply moved we are by all of your support and extensive, core connection to our work. 

To share the stage with was these incredible musicians James Osler, Fraser Bowles, Andrew Stuart Buttle, Jools Owens and Alfie Weedon has been the greatest honour for us. We want to also say a huge special thank you to the astounding ‘Pillow’ for bringing such profundity to the opening scene of each evening, to Leo at Rafiki Studio for your golden imagery in documenting the event to and to James Clements for capturing the audio and being our second pair of ears. Also a big shout out to all the wonderful venues for hosting us!

We’d also like to take this opportunity to thank Julian Barber at Piano Lobby for providing us with a seriously beautiful piano made by Hailun Pianos for our London performance and to the incredible team at Help Musicians for their unwavering support in our project. 

The success of this tour has prompted our next venture in November where we will be bringing a intimate blend of baron, guitars, piano and strings back on the road. We’re delighted to announce the first run of shows which will be:

Brighton - 8th November - The Rose Hill
London - 9th November - The Old Church

There are limited tickets so don’t hesitate! 

June Tour

Here are some photographs from our beautifully profound performance at the foot of the Preseli’s last Sunday, where we took to the round with the wondrous ‘Pillow’ as support. Close to the summer equinox, we celebrated the setting of the summer sun with a wash of gongs and transcendental musings into the depths of our eponymous record.

This Friday, we celebrate the summer equinox in the Church of St Michaels where the notion of the in tune with the infinite tour all began, almost precisely 6 months on from our winter equinox celebration last December. Only a handful of tickets remain for both our Brighton show at St Michaels church and in London the following day at Proposition Studios where we will be exhibiting a range of dark room photographs and prints.

Join us for this special special celebration of this record.
Doors open at 7:30pm and tickets can be found here

With love and Gratitude
