BBC Radio Wales
A big thank you to Adam Walton for opening his show on Saturday with ‘Seven Years’
“That drone can carry on for the next two hours and fifty four minutes as far as I’m concerned. A meditative balm beautifully written, arranged and recorded by Samana. Expansive and draw-droppingly beautiful; It’s exquisite!”
Feature
Thank you to ‘God is in The T.V’ for the beautiful feature
“Samana have spent the last few years building a studio by hand in remote Wales and their new EP Dharma is the first fruits of that labour. The first track to be shared is ‘Seven Years’ a gorgeous skeletal-folk song scattered with tenderly drawn instrumentals and the majestic vocals of Rebecca Rose Harris that remind me of Karen Dalton waltzing with Joni Mitchell. Representative of a metaphysical dawn, it searches for forgotten memories, drifting between – or perhaps suspended within – both piercing light and enveloping dark. It’s wonderful.”
Frome Concert
Our next show is in Frome on Thursday 6th April at Hydeaway.
There are still a handful of tickets left!

Seven Years Video
Seven Years
‘Seven Years’ evokes the liminal exchange between oneself and the embers that burn within an entrancing fire, fusing fragmented memories and abstract visions, as they emerge, collide and transform into a dream-like sequence. The allegorical tapestry of ‘Seven Years’ is woven with motifs, representative of the physical and metaphysical periods of growth and change, offering us a passage into an artistic exploration of the ancient notion of the seven year cycle; of life itself and that of renewal. The film was shot across the breadth of Wales, on super 8 film.
Seven Years
‘Seven Years’ is out now!
The second single from our up-coming E.P ‘Dharma’ is available to stream on all platforms
‘Seven Years’ is a reverie, representative of a metaphysical dawn. The soft expansion of instrumentation, kindles the light that dispels the stars and parts the darkness with the first illumination of an emerging day, palleting the music with transcendental hues of a deep longing. It encapsulates contemplation, introspection and reflection; a sinewy between a beginning and end. A coalescence of an infinite darkness and an emerging light, ‘Seven Years’ softly transmits the dialogue between the self and a landscape; of memories stores in distant places.
New Single
Just a little reminder that our new single ‘Seven Years’ is coming out this Thursday!
