TESTIMONIALS
"I wish you lots of success for your future."
Dame Vera Lynn D.B.E., LLD, M.MUS

"We initially used Sam for our Season Launch Dinner at the beginning of this year.  The aim was to supply some background music for our corporate guests upon entry to the event and whilst dining.  From first contact with Sam, we found her very professional, and she grasped exactly what we required.  Sam's musical ability, perfect tone and individual take on famous hits proved to be a great success on the night, and has such led Sam to singing Hospitality on Matches, and we will be sure to be using her again."
​Alex Wilson, Warrington Wolves Rugby

"We booked Sam for a corporate performance after a last-minute request from our client. She quickly understood the brief, and tailored her set accordingly. She went down very well with the audience (who can frequently be dismissive of such acts), perfectly judging the mood of the room. She was so popular, they've specifically requested she perform again at their next function! As well as being so easy to work with, she's a supremely talented musician."
Pete Nuttall, P10 Productions (Sale Sharks)

"You were a delight to work with at Folk on the Dock Festival 2016 and you held the audience captivated throughout your performance.  I am sure we will be seeing more of you on the festival scene."
Marina Blore, Fit The Bill (Folk On The Dock Festival)
•
"Sam Lyon performed at ‘PHABSTOCK Festival’ and ‘Music Nights’.  She not only performed superbly at the events, when she finished she stayed and interacted with the audience.  All of the people that I spoke to after the event were complimenting and praising how good she was.  Sam's timbre is unique, beautiful, and warm.  She has an amazing vocal range and her voice is characterful, and soulful, she knows the formula to a perfect pop song that's a sure crowd favourite. She is multi-talented: an amazing, emotional vocalist, a great guitarist.  We have booked her for our next event."
Glyn Hughes, TVWales (PHABSTOCK Festival)
•
"Her dedication and love for music is obvious to anyone who meets her and is even more obvious once you have heard her perform.  Sam's approach to performing is mature beyond her years, as is her songwriting ability.  If you are looking for an acoustic act for your event, then look no further than Sam Lyon.  It's that simple, she is that good."
Paul Barratt, Space Youth Project
•
"A creative musician.  During my years as Winsford Festival Coordinator; Winsford Five Ring Circus and most recently, Winsford Salt Fair, and the many other events that I have organised, and my year as Winsford Town Mayor 2012-2013 & 2016, Sam has supported me at all of these events.  I have seen her grow as a talented musician and performer.  Her music is soothing and inspiring and most of which is written by herself through her own life experiences.  You have to hear Sam perform with her guitar to hand to truly appreciate the delight that she brings."
Steve Smith, Winsford Town Mayor & Counsellor
•
"I toured with Sam in 2015 and from day one she just struck me as an incredibly ambitious, professional and kind person.  She is funny, easy to talk to and work with, extremely musical, and truly great on stage.  You can tell from her songs that she puts as much effort into the lyrics as into the harmonies and melodies, which is what makes the songs so striking.  Her music is sincere and she handles the audience and stage more elegantly than you could ever ask for.  Every concert is a dalliance.  Touring with Sam Lyon was one of the best times I've had in my life, not only is she an amazing performer, she's also an amazing human being.  Let her mellifluous music entrance you and bring you into her world."
Hildur Hoglind, Singer-Songwriter

“I have known Sam now for over 5 years in both a work and musical capacity. During this time her music has blossomed and her style really matured. She is also totally dedicated and professional in all that she does. Reliable, organised and creative are a rare combination! She was a real asset. I have seen her perform her own music live on many occasions as well as covering many of the classics. Most recently she also supported me in the development, marketing, and management for 3 major concerts (Thanks for the Memory). In these concerts she also sang with my Big Band (a new experience for her), as well as performing her own music - captivating the band and the audience. Sam is a total musician with a dedication which means she can only succeed. I wish her well in all she does and remain a fan... of course!!”
Tim Ashcroft, Innovas

“Sam’s ethereal vocal style and superb guitar playing had the audience spellbound.”
Stuart Smith, Sir John Deane's College

“A truly wonderful acoustic artist, she never fails to captivate her audiences and leave a lasting impression on those who hear her. She is known as one of the best singer songwriters in the area and for good reason. A brilliant talent and a brilliant person.”
Mason Burke

"We first saw Sam a couple of years ago at a local Folk n Roll and we were blown away by her amazing voice. We bought her first album and every track since. When we were having an afternoon gathering with family and friends to celebrate our 10 year wedding vow renewals, Sam was our perfect choice. Once again Sam was brilliant and all our family and friends were very impressed!  We would thoroughly recommend Sam, whatever your occasion."
Emma & Jon Guy

"Sam is a captivating artiste. Her voice is beautiful, tender and highly expressive. She has the talent to draw audiences into her music and leave them enchanted. Her performances are sincere and heartfelt. She is a kind and compassionate person who attracts praise and approval from audiences of all ages. A wholehearted recommendation from me."
ANDY TAYLOR-EDWARDS, THE LEARNING COLLECTIVE

"I have seen Sam perform many times around different venues, if anyone deserves to succeed as a musician, with her passion for music, her incredible talent not only singing but song writing too, throw in to the mix a loyal following – she does not fail us at any performance. Still my favourite go to work singing song to set me up for the day – Anchors, still love it!"
SUE LERCZAK, WINSFORD CROSS SHOPPING CENTRE

"Sam performed at our Sunday event & was brilliant, the selection of music she played kept everyone entertained and we had some wonderful comments from our visitors! Would highly recommend Sam, talented and very professional in every way!"
CHARLOTTE OWEN, THE ARTISANS MARKET
•
"​I invited Sam to play at my 40th Birthday garden party at the weekend and wanted to write a review as she was absolutely brilliant! Sam is vocally amazing and plays the acoustic guitar wonderfully, which really compliments her voice.  She makes any song her own and had my guests all saying how brilliant she was and that "parties were taken to a whole new level" following Sam's four amazing sets throughout the night.  She even learnt some songs I had requested which, at such short notice, was hugely appreciated, so thank you!  Sam was professional throughout. She was always in contact from the initial booking right through to the day of the party and was more than happy to make the three hour journey to play on the night.  Thanks again Sam for making my birthday such a great night; it is certainly one I will never forget!"

"I have worked with Sam Lyon many times, she has a delightful voice and is perfect for background ambience in a relaxed environment. Thoroughly recommend."
marc gallagher, singer-songwriter
•
"Sam was friendly, polite and well organised.  She was an absolute pleasure to work with, we would love to have her back based on that alone.  She is a fantastic singer with a really great quality and tone to her voice.  We'll absolutely welcome her back soon."
freemasons, knutsford
•
"Having watched Sam play a number of times, I cant help but get more and more drawn in to her performances.  Her soft soothing vocals are heart warming. Sam's lyrics also play a huge part in her outstanding performances as her songs are so well constructed and you cannot help but admire her talent and craft as a lyricist.  She definitely makes you feel something!"
ashley sherlock, singer-songwriter
•
"Charming and talented, Sam instantly grabs the attention of everybody in the room. One of the best young artists we have ever had down to play."
SIMPLE, MANCHESTER
•
"Sam's voice is fantastic! Such amazing relaxed control of range and vibrato. And she can do it live too, I heard the song 'Window' and 'Sonic Boom' live at The London Bar and it's very rare for me to hear a non professional live recording where the quality is irrelevant due to how strong the performance is. Sam clearly takes her craft seriously and it definitely shows through on her 2 EP's AND at live gigs, and not many people do themselves justice live.  The control Sam has is so calming, changing between notes seems effortless and the guitar and strings are a lovely accompaniment.  I think Sam is the only act who I would go out of my way to listen to live, It just seems like it would be a pleasant hour."
ADAM CALLAN, AJC RECORDING
•
"When you listen to Sam Lyon performing live, there is a certain warmth which she manages to create and spread through the entire room. Her voice is simply beautiful with no note out of place and her music is both soothing and thoughtful. Absolutely wonderful to experience and will have every listener enchanted."
NICOLA HARDMAN, SINGER-SONGWRITER
•
"The woman is always smiling.  Her manners are as impeccable as her speech is eloquent and articulate. Where there was chit-chat, all of a sudden, there was silence. She had gripped the audience and she now owned them. It was as if she had us all mesmerised. It was as if she had made the universe stop so she could sing especially for you, the individual. It was one of the most intimate performances I'd seen in my life, yet I was behind a bar in a room full of people. Her voice is flawless as her beauty and guitar playing, and if you listen to her recordings they are amazing, but live? Live is an experience that you could not get any other way other than to see her for yourself. There is something about this performer that is special.  Sam Lyon is a phenomenon. And I hope you enjoy watching her play as much as I do."
DAVID GANNON, LENNON'S BAR
•
"Sam was amazing from start to finish, she listened to what I wanted and was so flexible to my requirements. She sang two sets at my wedding reception in very difficult circumstances including my three year old daughter who kept moving Sam's microphone. Sam remained fully professional throughout. Her singing was wonderful. I can't recommend her enough!"
TRACEY DENT
•
"Sam Lyon performed at our Tree of Light Ceremony. Sam has an excellent voice and her performance was enjoyed by all that attended.  We have received great feedback from members of the public and we would look forward to welcoming her back to future events."
LESLEY MOORE & CHRIS SHAW, NORTHWICH TOWN COUNCIL
•
"​Sam has performed at a variety of informal gatherings for us, from outside charity events to 50th birthday house parties and has always been amazing - her voice is beautiful and she has performed covers for us and she always 'makes them her own' - wouldn't be surprised to see her headlining somewhere one day!"
LOUISE & TERRY BENNETT
•
"Sam agreed to sing at my daughter's wedding and I can not tell you how magical it was. With Sam's beautiful tone and presence, the day was given that special personal touch. From singing the bride down the aisle, entertaining the guests, and finally providing the romantic live performance for the couple's first dance, I can not praise her enough for her professionalism and her genuine desire to make the day a day to remember. Thank you from me, my daughter and her now husband Nathan."

"Sam considered our song choices, used sound levels that suited the occasion so that everyone could hear her clearly, and positioned herself so that everyone could see her.  She is extremely polite and courteous and has a professional competence and a flexible approach."
steve & mark smith

"From the lead up to the event and actually at the event, Sam was so professional.  She kept in touch on a regular basis regarding times, set up, etc..  She arrived early and I found her to be the loveliest young lady ever.  Hers and my song choices were mixed up in her two sessions and she did a brilliant job!  Her voice is so unique and some of my guests stated that the skin stood up on their arms when she sang.  I would definitely hire her again and tell my friends who were looking for an acoustic solo singer.  Thanks Sam."
