The Kindred Spirit Band has an original take on the Prog Folk Rock genre, weaving thrilling electric violin / guitar & flute / sax with “perceptive & intriguing” song-writing, driving rhythms & "haunting & bewitching" female vocals. Combined with Elaine's expansive, scientific edged concepts & “perceptive & intriguing” lyrics, their sound has been likened to “Curved Air”, “Fleetwood Mac” & the “Moody Blues”.
Elaine Samuels, the band's founder & driving force, began performing in folk clubs at the age of only 13, getting a mention in the local press after her first spot in public as “one to watch”! In the 1990s, she began touring solo & was featured several times on television.
"Elaine has a voice which can be both hauntingly beautiful & deeply emotional, coupled with a powerful stage presence. Her material ranges from folk through to blues, but it is her rich repertoire of perceptive, intriguing self penned songs combined with her guitar work which sets her apart”.
Rosie Upton, Bath Evening Chronicle
Over the next few years she evolved a full band, notably performing at Glastonbury Festival & Liverpool's famous Cavern Club, much to the delight of John Lennon's half sister, Julia, who complimented their performance!
“Folk rock meets classical with a scientific edge”
Rachel Mann, Prog Magazine
They have released six main albums; Dance of Life, The Watchers, In The Doghouse, Metamorphosis, Phoenix Rising & Elemental.
