OUR SOUND
The Samuel Tambe Band prides itself in bringing professional quality live music to the WNY area. We play a wide range of styles, including classic rock, easy listening, country, soul, and pop. Depending on when you walk in on our set, you may find yourself listening to anything from James Taylor to Pink Floyd! We even throw in some original music, to boot! Our musical range allows us to please a wide variety of listeners as well as customize set lists for a number of different event types and occasions. No matter what we're playing, two things never change: the music is good and the positive vibes abound! (In our experience, they're quite contagious!)
