From rural New Zealand to the subways and bodegas of New York, Samuel R. Saffery’s musical journey is unquestionably linked to place and movement. In March this year, he embarked on an epic 400-kilometre walking tour through New Zealand to promote his new solo releases. He is now making his debut on Australian stages.
Blending indie folk, alternative rock, and classical influences, his songs are delivered with a distinctive, melodic voice, as haunting as it is sweet. Honest, gutsy lyricism and his willingness to connect with people give listeners the sense they’re sharing in a secret that might not be retold.
Take a listen to some of Samuel Saffery below:

Saffery honed his craft touring in USA, UK and Europe as a member of New York indie folk band Bird Courage. His solo music explores themes of identity, the subconscious world, human beings’ sense of place, and their daily connections with one another. This year, Saffery has been independently recording and releasing new music, including singles “Don’t Look Back” and “Day One”, showcasing his growth as a solo artist.
Support for the day is Laura MacFarlane of Ninetynine.
