Her songs have an unusual quality of honesty, depth and humour very much belonging to the craft of songwriting and what it takes to move someone, mixing heartfelt story-telling with catchy melodies and clever quirky lyrics that stand strong enough alone to carry a solo acoustic performance. Her voice is emotive and charismatic, sweet seductive tones that can break your heart, make you laugh and turn you on all in the space of 20 seconds
Press review
“I was fortunate enough to catch one such performance recently in Stroud. The artist in question is Sam Batt and not having come across her before, it didn’t take long to realise she has mastered the art of solo performance and added to it. Musically she is a very accomplished guitarist with a voice to match and most importantly in this genre, a very talented songwriter – and in her case there is a unique tonal quality to her voice that adds depth and intrigue to her songs. Every one of her songs seems to have a unique real life story behind it and Sam’s exquisite and passionate vocals delivered each song with a personal introspection that somehow also made the audience feel they were part of the story as well – a very rare gift. A perfect example is the superb and sometimes haunting “there’s an angel watching”, which she told us was written whilst she was recuperating from a broken back and it was almost impossible not to feel it was something you had gone through. ” Brad Hansen, Stroud News and Journal
