Don't be alarmed, it's only Samoa. He is a great BBQ companion. Just kick back with beer and ribs, put his music on. Everything will be alright.
The guitarist of New York Shock Rock Band, The Voluptuous Horror of Karen Black, Samoa leads his anti-Neo-Con country band called The Lonely Samoans. Samoa has been in New York Underground art scene since early 80s'.
Why country music? -"It's perfect, red and yellow makes orange", says
Samoa.
Samoa was born in a tiny fishing village in Hiroshima, Japan. While watching the landing of the moon on TV, his curiosity reached to the max. He promised himself to seek the opportunity one day in the land of free, America!
Samoa is a cultural refugee. "I am not sure, I've ever felt belonging to any particular culture", says Samoa. "It was confusing growing up in Japan, watching American TV like, Andy Williams Show, Star Trek, Combat...it was so far away from my home that I was eating margarines and sucking on dried fishes".
The Lonely Samoans first album is a classic. TOP TEN VERMONT ALBUMS OF 2004.
