"MISS YOU"
Written by: Jon Cresswell
Produced by: Dave Cook
Mixed by: Jeff Juliano
Mastered by: Hans Dekline

I’m so sick, I’m so sick of hearing you say
That you’ll never be, never be good enough.
I’m so sick, I’m so sick of hearing you complain
Saying you’ll never be, you’ll never be strong enough


I miss you, yeah I miss you think about it every day 
How I kissed you and I kissed you and I wished you away
And now I, think I know what it feels like to be alone
I loved you and I loved you nobody else and I hate to admit it
‘Cause I know it’s for the best that I, let you go, let you go.


Trouble oh trouble why do you follow me
Why do you waste your time trying to get the worst out of me
I’m on my knees begging please cause 
I wanna be, wanna be where you are

I wish we could talk this out, but I’m sure you wouldn’t understand
I guess I couldn’t expect you to, no matter what I still love you.

Gift Wrapped EP

Miss You

In my church clothes; favorite shirt
I've been playing in the dirt
In the porcelain I try to clean
Six foot two, all of me
Then I walk to the Hoover Dam
Ask Colorado to wash this man
I look up and see the gray
The color in the rivers way

I ask these concrete walls if gently they would wall

Hoover Dam break free
Hoover Dam wash me
I wanna wear the water

I lay down sticks of red
On this dry river bed
The river waits, waits with me
For the time we'll both be free
Me, from all my filth
The river of this dam i build
Five, four, three, then the two
Right before I hear the boom

I ask these concrete walls if gently they would wall

Hoover Dam break free
Hoover Dam wash me
I wanna wear the water

I Am Samson -
Noun [ahy am sam-suhn]
I Am Samson is the brother/sister duo of Josh and Anna Tigges. Home is outside Washington DC in the dancing woodlands of northern Virginia. Josh's gift in songwriting and guitar is contrasted by Anna's expertise in singing and piano performance.

Josh studied songwriting at James Madison University and has toured his music as a solo artist from the Atlantic to Pacific coast. His use of truth, concrete imagery, and melody in his writing make you feel like a part of the story he is telling.

Anna tells a story when she sings and plays piano. Her musical resume is better told the human ear. You'll be refreshed on a hot summer day when the cool waterfall of Anna's voice cools your face.

Josh and Anna both believe music is part of who God made them. Josh was working software sales in Seattle and Anna was a manager at a coffee shop in Virginia. After playing many concerts together, late night jam sessions, conversations over coffee, and prayer, they had a peace about quitting their jobs and pursuing music full time.

Samson is a Hebrew name that means "bright sun." The man Samson in the Bible was a broken human that God still found worthy to do His work. I Am Samson is two people, two siblings, that assembled their unique gifts together and are bringing some truth and light to the world.
After working a soul draining social media marketing job with FOX Broadcasting in Los Angeles, CA, Josh humbly moved home for a year to pay off his student loans working at his families bed and breakfast, Zion Springs. Near the end of his time at Zion Springs, Josh planned, recorded, and released his second EP, Patience Plea on October 19, 2014.

Josh’s music is Josh. He believes that everyone else has been done before, and why try to be like them and rob his fans of his own creative writing skill, vocal tone, and his personality that make his music identifiably different. With folk undertones of Mumford and Sons, vocal energy of punk rock, and catchy melodies that will get stuck in your head for days; Josh calls his music, “power indie.”

There are no masks when Josh performs. Josh is himself and opens the diary of his heart for the public to read. This allows everyone to take their masks off as well and feel at home in a strange club that now feels a lot like Josh’s living room.
