Review: Sam Green & The Time Machine
If you are looking for something completely unique and different, try giving Sam Green & The Time Machine a listen. Here is music that will take you to the fringe. His folky melodies are overlain onto lyrics that actually feel more like poetry. Quirky phrasing adds another dimension. There is an other-worldly, other-time feeling to what Green does, making his group's name an apt choice (along with the fact that the family business is watchmaking and jewelry).
Green, who resides in Melbourne, Australia, considers his music "currency for making good friends" and says that music has been part of his life since he was a young boy. In the early days of the Internet, he would get around 100,000 hits a year on his web site. Somewhere along the way, the Queen of England sent him a letter. Apparently, he's made lots of friends, at least one of them in high places.
Besides music, you'll also find some interesting art and poetry on his site along with some philosophical and social commentary. What you won't see there is news of his latest recording sessions. He plans to release the project sometime in March or April. You'll want to check that out.
I leave you with his comments from a recent email to me: "Life here in Melbourne is sweet. With summer everywhere. In the wind, in the clouds and in my hair. Wishes all the best, Sam Green."
