Samantha Fish

One of the most formidable guitarists of her generation, Samantha Fish brings unmatched power and emotionality to her music. A Grammy nominee and Billboard Blues Chart-topper, she's toured with The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, and Slash. Her latest release, Paper Doll, features nine powerhouse songs balancing catharsis, boldness, and vulnerability-the sound of an artist unapologetically coming into her own.
