With less then 3 days till Sam’s big EP release, he is dropping all kinds of good news on us from every direction via Twitter!

For my Canadian friends, two, yes TWO new shows for you. Sam will be at the Metro Theatre in Victoria, British Columbia on September 24 at 8 p.m. The show will be all ages and is part of the Rifflandia Music Festival. Check out Rifflandia’s site for more information and how to purchase tickets. It looks to me like the show is only available as part of the festival package for $60. But if you are into music, that is a pretty good deal considering all the shows you’ll get in addition to Sam!

The very next day, September 25, Sam will be in Vancouver at the Venue. The show starts at 7 p.m. and tickets are $15. There is no information that I can find about WHERE to buy tickets, as the show is not up on the Venue’s website yet, but I will keep an eye out for it and post it when it’s available!

Updated!

Order your tickets online!

More Sam news and such after the jump!

Sam (or most likely his people) are working hard on Sam’s new website as well. It will be http://www.sambradley.com/ and it is still a work in progress. But for those of you who need to get Sam’s EP on Saturday (which is ALL of you), you should go ahead and just bookmark the site. I know I did!

There is also a new review of Sam’s Secret Show from the Examiner! It’s a really well written and very descriptive review (which you know how I LOVE description). Here is just a little excerpt that I enjoyed most:

Sam started the show out with the song “Come On In” and you could see that he was happy and “at home” on the stage. In between every song, Sam pulls in his audience with some heartfelt words and stories, but the true testament was in his vocal and stage performance.

Sam most definitely feeds off of his audience throughout his entire show, and his audience feeds off of him. It is a relationship that many singers will never get to experience, but somehow Sam seems to have mastered it, and tonight he seems to have brought this skill to a new level. With Sam, you have always been able to feel the emotions of a song, both lyrically and physically, you can tell exactly what emotions he was feeling when he wrote the song, but, there was more to it tonight. Whether it was because he has found that magic that allows him to connect so much with his audience or something else, the power of his performance was simply amazing.

The “love” songs he sings emit feelings of love that only exist in dreams. It is obvious that he has put his heart and soul into these songs, and the effect that he creates when singing them, causes ripples of possibilities and hope to run through the air.

*sigh* This is why you must see Sam live if you’ve never had the chance. You just “get it” so much more! Here is the rest of the article.

And, if you feel the need to really connect with Sam (and who doesn’t!), he shared with us his song of the day: My Body is a Cage by Arcade Fire. It’s pretty deep.

Still here? Good. We will have another big announcement from our blog later today regarding Sam and his upcoming birthday/EP release! Be sure that you are following me (Amber) and LiLi on Twitter so you won’t miss out on it! Trust me, it’s gonna be good!
