CIVIC UNDERGROUND :: THE HOME OF WORLD CLASS SOUND :: SYDNEY CBD :: 9PM TILL LATE

THURSDAY APRIL 29 2021

SAMS COMMUNE is a Sydney, Australia based Jam Band & Special Tribute Act with their musical taste and  influences widely spreading from Blues Rock ,Latin Rock, Soul, Funk, Southern Gospel to Fusion Hard Jazz.

The band draws its inspiration from artists like Santana, The Allman Brothers, The Band, Grateful Dead, Derek and the Dominos,  Tedeschi Trucks Band, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Mahavishnu Orchestra, JImmy Hendrix, James Brown, Parliament Funkadelic.

This band has an easily recognisable classic jam band sound born out of the 60’s and 70’s American Counterculture Era.

This massive lineup of talented Sydney based musicians and singers  behind this Jam Band and Special Tributes Act project was conceived by Australian guitarist Ben Chakravorty in the summer of 2017 to re-introduce that classic sound and culture to our local music scene.

The energy, vibe and essence of their tasteful, grooving and dance music is a treat for every audience who comes out to watch Sams Commune playing live.
