About

Sam Green About (Biography)

One of Australia's most prolific songwriters, says that his music has something to do and say about his experience of living and surviving.

Born in Melbourne, near the river, Yarra. It has had a profound inspiration in his growth as a writer. Sam started playing music at the age seven, writing a few years later. His musical influence are many, he lists such as Jackson Browne, Paul Simon, Woody Guthrie, The Seekers, Van Morrison, Bach, Beethoven, his loving mother, old Irish and Russian music.

Playing a variety of instruments, Sam has performed at a large range of venues, and with regular appearances on community radio and television, plus previews on RAGE. Ironically one of the most important factors of this man's song writing was an accident on a motorcycle overseas more than twenty years ago, which then damaged his leg quite severely. At first the doctor in charge was talking about amputating it. But later as saved.

Now that he is fully recovered, from the ordeal. He recalls "I started writing and reflecting upon the reflections of time. I had time to think about mattered in life and time." Once he worked for more than just a living. The music of Sam Green is heart-felt, head-soul music, with feeling, in music and song. His own view is that: "Music is the heart strings of our foundation, on reflection I am a part of a wheel, within a wheel, within a movement of time, I give and I receive, in this balance of the Universe, I seek, harmony and goodwill."
