Q&A: Sam Leyde Band

Sagecliffe Performing Artist Q & A

Tell us about your background (where are you from, when did you start performing, what inspired you to start writing music etc):

I grew up in the Seattle area but I live in North Idaho now. I started performing about 6years ago. 
I started writing songs because of a girl. Haha.

What is it about music that makes you feel passionate?

It’s that feeling that’s difficult to describe. Like a warm ray of sunshine that hits your soul. That’s what I’m chasing with music. 

Tell us about your proudest moment in your career as a musician.

Probably our album release concert. Hearing 400 people sing my songs back to me. It was unreal. 

Do you have any hobbies outside of music?

Fly fishing, though I don’t get to go much. 

What is your favourite thing about performing at Sagecliffe Resort?

Gotta say the people I’ve met so far. 

What would be your biggest dream/accomplishment as an artist?

Living a life where songs paid the bills. 

What are you working on now?

Trying to release more music. Building the band’s fan base and expanding our travel area.
