Sam Bambery (NZ) - Dusty's Fitzroy

Sam Bambery is an artist and impresario from Otautahi/Christchurch, currently based in Naarm/Melbourne. Exploring his love of semi-psychedelia through a twisted folk-rock lens, Bambery writes effectual and spacious songs burrowing into emotional identity and exhaustion. His sophomore album Rubricator released in 2024 with micro-label Under Underground Records, edging at outsider-pop influence.

"...very considered, like Bambery lived with the album in his head for a while before bringing it into the world...a hint of mystery hangs over things...it's as ornate as these well-crafted tunes" - Tony Stamp, Radio New Zealand

"Rubricator confirms the emergence of a real talent" - Graham Reid, NZ Listener

Sam Bambery is joined by Pastures and Ruby Milner
