ABOUT MAMA SAM
Born in Wisconsin and raised on campfire sing-a-longs, Mama Sam is a heart-scrubbin’, soul-shakin’ powerhouse. Raw, magnetic, and just a little dangerous, she cuts straight to the bone. In Chicago’s 2000s underground scene, she left scorch marks with bands like Calibrated Crematorium, Willy Dynomite, Cartolinas, and The Flower Beds.
Portland became her next cosmic pit stop. She landed in 2014 and, by 2018, was captaining a psychedelic folk-pop starship called Mama Sam & The Jam. Her songs braid heartbreak and cosmic curiosity with a jolt of emotional electricity that can hush a room mid-sip.
Beyond her own project, Mama Sam has lent her unmistakable pipes and lush vocal arrangements to a bunch of Portland acts, including New Constellations, Ashleigh Flynn and the Riveters, ZWONGR, Mitch and the Melody Makers, and more.
Mama Sam & The Jam sound like Mazzy Star took a field trip with Fleetwood Mac and forgot to come back—drenched in harmony, a little interstellar, and gloriously groove-soaked. It’s vibey, goosebump-raising, frequency-lifting magic.
ABOUT THE JAM
Portland based, Psychedelic Folk Pop band, Mama Sam & The Jam lifts vibrations and gives goosebumps. Catchy melodies and powerful harmonies over trippy guitar and groovy beats leaves listeners feeling high on vibes. The group's fresh and intense synergy makes Mama Sam & The Jam fun to watch as they tug at your heartstrings and make you move! The Jam features Carmen Paradise, Nick Foltz, Justine Renee, Rachael Curtin and Mike Wiser.
The band released their first E.P., “Hearing is Hard” at the end of 2019 with producer Sean Flora. During Covid, Mama Sam recorded and released an E.P. with Ryan Oxford called “Home” in 2021. In 2023, the Jam recorded their first LP with Ricky Wilkins in Portland, Oregon. “Songs About Boys” is set to drop on June 16, 2026 on VLVT HEART RECORDS!
