02 You Should Know By Now

01 (A Place Called) Home

Sam's debut EP exemplifies all the facets of what his music has to offer. He flows from original folk songs to up-beat, Beatles-esque tunes and to touching ballads in this sampler. This EP shows the ups and down of love, vulnerability, and moving on all wrapped in a musical package that anyone can enjoy.

Take one little step into the light
You won’t regret what you have done or what you said
The past is dead, the past is dead

One more little step up to the edge
Where you’ll collect all of your fears spinning ‘round in your head
The past is dead, the past is dead

My darling you…
Must find what’s true…
My darling you…

Baby steps someday will build into mighty strides
Baby steps no use in trying to run and hide
There’s nothing to fear but fear itself
You’ll never find love if you don’t love yourself

Just one little step into the hope
That lies ahead, worry has little to no affect
The course is set, the course is set

My darling you...
Must find what's true...
My darling you...

Baby steps someday will build into mighty strides
Baby steps no use in trying to run and hide
There’s nothing to fear but fear itself
You’ll never find love if you don’t love yourself

My darling you...
Must find what's true...
My darling you...

Baby steps someday will build into mighty strides
Baby steps no use in trying to run and hide
There’s nothing to fear but fear itself
You’ll never find love if you don’t love yourself

Baby Steps

Samuel J Barrows discovered music at a young age, the same way as many before him: listening to the radio. Music always wafted through the house as he listened to his father DJ on the radio. Samuel found his father’s old LP’s along the way and discovered the likes of Simon and Garfunkel, The Carpenters, and James Taylor.  He began writing his own songs after the family uprooted from Upstate New York to Madison, Wisconsin. He continued to hone his craft throughout his teenage years.

In college Samuel formed his band The Todays, continuing to write and perform around the Midwest.  Today he calls Nashville, Tennessee home. 

Samuel’s songs are for fans of Gregory Alan Isakov, Fleet Foxes, Chris Stapleton, Simon and Garfunkel, Drew Holcomb, and The Tallest Man On Earth. 2016 marks his sophomore release, All But Buried.
