I talked recently with Jeff Angeley about all kinds of things including Irish music, late night jams, and various fiddle communities for the Southcoast Artists Index. Here it is if you’d like to have a listen!

Welcome, Sam Babineau a songwriter and fiddle player. She hails from the South Coast of Massachusetts. Sam enjoys engaging with personal narratives that echo the storytelling found in traditional folk music, blended with a modern zest.

Sam’s introduction to playing Irish music began with her involvement in Irish step dancing at the age of 10. Since then, Sam Babineau has adapted her background in fiddle music to support her songwriting.

The Artists Index Music Podcast Host, Jeff Angeley, talks with Sam Babineau about her music, background, and lots more. This episode was recorded in Jeff’s studio in 2023. The Artists Index also continues using Zoom and our studio at the Spectrum Marketing Group in Howland Place in New Bedford.

Calling all shower singers and backseat belters!! This fall I’ll be teaching a ten week course at The Heron Educational Center for the Human Spirit focused on learning to trust your voice and sing with others! If the thought of singing in a group has always seemed exciting, but a little too intimidating, this one is for you :) No experience is necessary. Together we’ll look at heathy singing habits, holding down a part, and balance within the group. At the end we’ll take the material we’ve learned and put on a small performance for friends and family.

Growing up I have always been a part of chorus and found so much joy in it, so this is something I’ve wanted to do since I started teaching. Please feel free to email or message me with any questions. I can’t wait to get this started!
