Since releasing her career defining album DEAR JOHN in April 2022, Sam Buckingham has graced main stages at Woodford and Queenscliff Music Festivals, toured with the Festival of Small Halls, and headlined a sold out 34 date national tour.
She’s also toured alongside Kate Miller-Heidke, Paul Kelly, Katie Noonan, Tim Freedman, The Whitlams, Kasey Chambers, Washington and Ben Lee.
Now, two years on, Sam Buckingham is returning with her follow up EP "Cyclone".
A collaboration with award winning Brisbane based artists Emma Dean (piano) and Monique Clare (cello), the "Cyclone" EP explores classic piano-pop, borrowing influences from jazz, hip hop, gospel and soul.
"Vending Machine", written on a cramped bus from Spain to Portugal reflects on the pressure we feel to keep buying more things in order to feel better about ourselves.
"Warning Signs" is a gripping recognition of the psychological effects of violence against women.
The title track, "Cyclone", was written for one of Sam’s close friends, encouraging her to stay strong in the storms of hardship.
The EP’s final track "Across The Line", a co-write with Melbourne based songwriter Ainslie Wills, explores self love and the willingness to fully express who we are.
“Masterful songwriting” - Kate Miller-Heidke
"Iconic" - Kia Handley (ABC)
"Byron Bay's next big thing" - Courier Mail
“The plain spoken piano of this EP hides nothing… powerful” - Bernard Zuel
