Sam Robbins with Lara Herscovitch
Sam Robbins is a familiar name to many Folk Project regulars. He opened for Trout Fishing in America in 2022, on our “Streaming Tuesdays” video series, and most recently at our 2023 Fall Getaway. Sam plays a nice mix of originals and interesting covers. He is possessed of a lovely voice, good guitar chops, and an engaging stage personna. One might call him a “Sensitive Singer-Songwriter”, but if so, he wears the title well.
A singer-songwriter-poet-performer gem, Lara Herscovitch was described in The Boston Globe as “a luminous voice and a buoyant stage presence… big-hearted lyrics embrace the sum of life… Herscovitch’s music blows on the embers of a lagging spirit…” Sound Waves Magazine calls her music “expertly written prose… songwriting at its best… good for your ears AND your soul.” Acoustic Live in NYC adds, “She possesses not only a huge reservoir of musical talent and a voice with a bell-like clarity, but a keen sense of global concern and a fierce intellect… It might seem too good to be true, but true it is.”
