Samantha Lane - honest eloquence through music

I have known Samantha since our days together in college, and I always knew that when she headed to California, she would find fame in movies, music and/or art. Someone with this much talent, brains, and beauty is a rare find. This first solo effort from Samantha really highlights all three facets of Samantha's best attributes:

1. Talent - Samantha skillfully wrote all of the tunes on this album and deftly sings and performs them with feeling and grace.

2. Brains - Samantha found the best musicians to back her up, the best production to put out an increadibly professional sounding and looking recording, and even assembled a beautiful Web site -

3. Beauty - Samantha's music will make you smile. Great beauty makes you appreciate that you are alive, and this album will make you feel happy that you are able to experience great beauty.

Here is the review I wrote when the album was first released:

Samantha Lane's first full-length release, "Find A Way" is filled to the brim with sophisticated but truly honest lyrics and the power of a purely soulful voice. All of the songs are originally written and drawn from the intimacy of everyday life and skillfully performed with grace by Samantha and her talented band. It is easy to root for Samantha as you journey with her through the full spectrum of human emotions and back again. This album will keep you humming, toe tapping, dancing, and certainly thinking even after your speakers turn off.

Samantha won Honorable Mention for the song “Mother Mary” in the 2007 CMT Nashville Songwriter’s Association International Contest! Keep up the great work Samantha!
