Samantha Fish - "Watch It Die" & "Love Letters" Live At Telluride Blues & Brews Festival

OK, we admit it. We’re smitten. It’s not just a passing crush, a little thang, a fickle fancy. It’s true love and we adore Samantha Fish. She had us from the get-go when she ruled the crowd in her 2016 Fred Shellman Memorial Stage debut, and we’ve invited her back every year since then. We’re so grateful she says yes! How do we love her? Let’s count the ways. Let’s start with her guitar chops. She makes the guitar cry and sing, and her solos are like riding a magic carpet through time and space. Then there’s that voice. Oh, that voice. It’s clear and pure and powerful as a springtime river. She howls and shouts and she sings sweetly with unbridled emotion. Her latest record, “Belle of the West,” is a soulful outing that finds her style venturing from expected blues norms. She lives and plays to challenge herself. Consider us completely and happily along for the ride.
Get ready for an stunning version of “Watch It Die" followed by "Love Letters" live from the Telluride Blues & Brews Festival Main Stage.

Im a 71 year old Scottish guy in lockdown in spain and Samantha really cheers me up with her great music,go girl go

[@tonyromano6220]

Matthew Todd hang in there my friend. This madness will pass.

[@reneemeston2916]

I'm a 52 year old scottish girl in Southern California at home because I don't have a car and listening to this girl jam! Go sister go! Renee from Winchester, California

[@wetwriterrr]

I am 76, bought all her CDs, and hoping she will marry me...if my wife of the last 500 years agrees. HAH!!! You are right, Samatha cheers us up and fun seeing her talent grow thru the years.

[@midnight-2021]

This might be the only way to watch musicians even with a vaccine because there are health professionals and politicians talking like mask wearing and social distancing should be our new normal permanently. Permanent social distancing will destroy live entertainment as we knew it. If you elect liberal leftist radicals you get what you deserve.

[@dmitrysobolin5158]

Love this clear, throbbing and sproingy rhythm. Watch It Die is amazing mini-drama within one song. It's absolutely spectacular.

[@reneemeston2916]

I wish I had someone to take me out to go see her! She is amazing. Renee from California

[@chriszelez7970]

I'll be right over.

[@reneemeston2916]

[@davebanks7435]

Samantha - following you for ages - when Covid has gone PLEASE come to New Zealand - love your music!!

[@chriszelez7970]

Covid will always be with us.

[@chevreherd]

Of course everyone in the band is awesome. Sam makes sure to have top talent backing her up

[@X75A75RV]

Samantha's control of that guitar vs amp feedback is great, she does this at the start of "lost myself", even Chris Alexander produce some bass vs amp feedback, then she strums

[@lorenzo6mm]

Category 5 "Andrew" Magic amps.

[@frankzahn295]

In my Opinion "watch it die" is the best song on this outstanding record, Kill or be Kind.

[@alanmartin1667]

I like bulletproof too..

[@juliane3683]

THAT VOICE !

[@chevreherd]

Chills and fever listening to this

[@chevreherd]

My two fav songs and lots of appreciation for Chris laying down that bass and background vocals just right

[@user-tm1ps2qs3b]

Love music

[@WestShoreMan]

Amazing talent and cant wait to see her live!

[@tjmarvin1627]

Strong and smooth. Love it.

[@ldfrench1]

Love this! Great capture and great performance! Thank you!

[@bocforever6791]

I hope that it will be possible to see her in 2021. She's great

[@ytdimitriyt7115]

Perfect ! Give us more Telluride team.... but I guess it's a question of rights :-) However it is great we have extracts each year ;-) Bye. Dimitri from Belgium

[@johndodson4527]

Badass.

[@lutherjohnson5620]

I feel you girl you have received my love for the rocking blues .!!>>>✓, Luke the Dryftr .

[@gatojj]

Just another true talent that plays here own Guitar and can really sing and not lip-sync so it doesn't fit in Hollywood or the recording business anymore! They just want fake !

[@miguelgb7352]

Yeah, I like your music so much, great singer and guitar.😎

[@chucklamb3496]

Love you Samantha 😎

[@chevreherd]

The only performer I know who can sing difficult songs emote and tuna guitar at the same time

[@tonyromano6220]

chevreherd amazing performer

[@alanbenton6286]

I always heard that you can tune a guitar,but you can't tune a fish!Well,I guess she proved that you can !!

[@quaildogsfishin7879]

That is one bad ass fish!

[@nobrakes7247]

So So GOOD What a Performer! Fanboy!

[@johnnydee5658]

Samantha is (1) a great composer (2) a great lyricist (3) a great singer (4) a great musician (5) a great guitarist (6) a hard working professional. Not necessarily in that order ;-)

[@johnnydee5658]

(7) a force of nature [sorry for the omission...

[@georgestevens1502]

And an old soul. She channels every era of the blues with a heaping dollop of her own original rock melodies. Like Jimi or Stevie Ray, I want to hear every note and vocal she does where ever she goes.

[@leemaples1806]

Has Jeff Beck called her yet? They could be on tour in late `21 Beck and Fish 2021

[@ldfrench1]

Aside from being a stunning show, this performance was a brilliant stroke of marketing strategy, just a week prior to the album release and mirroring her launch of the diamond eye and sparkly suit on the Acura Stage at NOLA Jazz Fest in May.

[@johnwingate8799]

[@jerseyjeeper1575]

Words of wisdom

[@yurydobrin2810]

She is a good performer, and a lot of show-offs, but I like it.🔥😊👍

[@Gretsch0997]

Well I’m glad someone explained to me what is going on with her face. Thank you “Idfrench1”

[@wrdlmbrt1956]

Well ... I know she has that face paint on one of songs ( that I can't seem to recall at the moment because it's one of my favorites... lol) but enlighten me on why she wears that mark on her face? Ooh, it just came to me ... " Bulletproof "...... she has that face paint on in the offical video of "Bulletproof "... does it have a meaning?

[@alanbenton6286]

The face thing is what happens when a natural born whailer,is diggin deep inside of their self to pull something real from their heart and soul.its a beautiful thing,once you know what's happening. She ain't faking it,when shes lookin like that! Shes giving all of us,the best shes got to give! Dig it,my friend!!!

[@squeezo4360]

cette femme me fait pleurer quand je bois du bourgogne

[@jukkahintsala5526]

Samantha, you are really tired and it shows in you and in your playing

[@billhailey266]

I feel like I should like this more but it doesn't really speak to me why

[@Guitarplayer724]

Who cares?

[@tonyromano6220]

6:57 kills

[@petedazer3381]

She’s good,the horns gotta go! Useless to her. Imho, go back to your roots get the power trio back again! Where’s GoGo?

[@alanbenton6286]

I was trapped by Samantha's early style.the make up is an un needed distraction.shes got serious talent and is seriously attractive. All band members are awesome,but ,go go ray,and scott sutherland,are my picks!!shout out to those guys!!!

[@dmurphy303]

Gotta agree, love the trio, Gogo and Chris get my vote. Hope she doesn't get to big for her britches. Love her tho.

[@user-mj5vr1zq2k]

Саманта, Боже, что ты творишь!?!?!?

[@ricklamoureux4595]

Is the weird eye makeup used to cover up a black eye?

[@tonyromano6220]

Rick Lamoureux no it is sorta her “thing”.

[@pktdbgnzwl]

Love Samantha Fish. But this diamond on the eye thing to seem so gimmicky and the semi- pop direction feels a little bit like recording contracts are being fulfilled rather than digging in and going with the vibe. Hope she makes enough money to get back to her roots, or this new direction is something that is her idea that she wants to explore.

[@jackychazaubenay1195]

HEY SAM" WHY THIS LOOK?IMPROBABLE FROM ONE BLUESGIRL WITH TALENTS AND HABITUAL PHYSIC SEXY, NOT EXCENTRIQUE!!!! THÉ SOUND IS REALLY GOOD , ...JACKYFAN👎

[@A1Authority]

Sometimes.. after becoming immersed in the vid, I suddenly come to and realize she has clothes on.

[@tonyromano6220]

Don White okkkk

[@legentilhommedefortune]

Another one with that satanic -illuminati symbolism painted on her face ...she's super talented this said ...wouldn't be surprised of a blood sacrifice of someone close to her soon...

[@mbsnyderc]

There is no Illuminati fool and that's not a symbol of anything on her face.

[@speedbird723]

Shes like...stevie ray vaughn had a child with dolly parton. Shes amazing !

[@wetwriterrr]

Yep, and her amazing talent is not based on cup size.

[@georgestevens1502]

And her uncle is Johnny Winter!

[@legentilhommedefortune]

But with a higher IQ than Parton ....

[@leeconnelly6364]

@@legentilhommedefortune oh i disagree! Dolly is smart as a whip and a firstclass buisiness woman! Shes been performing scince jhonny cash n willie nelson got started and was one of the First chicks to tour and play music live. The dudes Hated it and messed with her alot!...Ladies working NOW owe her much cuz she paved the way for em all to become accepted in the Industry. Pat benetar..blondie..the Heart girls...all of em had to struggle to get respect even years later..imagine how them southern cowboys used to diss her?..but she couldnt be stopped.not a great country fan but her stuff was "all American" and she sings like an Angel. She was always one tough Southern classy Lady !....Samantha is Alot like her.
