“I absolutely love these guys, they’re extraordinary, remarkable! I can’t recommend anything more highly. This is the sound of art meeting love in a very real way. Samana are my artist of the year and definitely my favourite find of the year!” Guy Garvey, BBC6 Music
“Soulful and hypnotic music. Harris and Mockett have gifted us with a sonically and thematically beautiful piece of work that compliments their raw talent.........a record that truly inspires awe.”Line Of Best Fit - 9/10
“Meditative deep reflections, swooning wanderlust, piercing an anaesthetising reach - think Nico, Jarboe, Mazzy Star” Mojo Magazine - 4/5 stars
“Heart-stoppingly beautiful. It has that quality that is so uniquely Samana. It unfolds at a leisurely, narcotic pace, acoustic chords a subtle earthing for Rebecca’s deep dulcet lyric and lazy, psychedelic guitar touches.” Backseat Mafia
Samanas’ music confronts the heaviest elements of the human condition, alternately surrendering to this heaviness and transcending it. It is an invitation to regain possession of ourselves and our time, as well as rediscovering harmony with the environment that surrounds us, compelling a desire to overcome our borders and to learn. Oscillating between melancholic ballads and spiritual experiences, their music leads one on a journey of cinematic proportion that evokes ancient beliefs, revolution, healing, fallen civilisations and intense deliberations of love, loss and death. They possess a truly unique spirit born from a nomadic and solitary existence, placing great emphasis on the philosophy of dreams, the interior of the subconscious and the power of improvisation. Each song created by Samana is constructed with an ethereal power and an emotional honesty which offers a direct passage into the essence of ourselves, removing ones veneer, with its shamanic quality. This is music for the soul.
