SAMANTHA FISH RELEASES LIVE TAKES OF FAN FAVORITES AHEAD OF FULL FALL TOUR

Samantha Fish is unstoppable in 2024, unveiling “Crowd Control” (Alternate Version), a dynamic three-song E.P. that reimagines her electrifying tracks "Faster," "Crowd Control," and "Better Be Lonely." Known for her commanding stage presence, Fish amplifies these fan favourites with the raw, untamed energy that defines her. At the core of this release is a bold self-exploration—one of empowerment, vulnerability, and facing inner demons.

Recorded during a live performance video shoot in Nashville, the tracks burst to life with blistering guitar solos, dynamic vocals, and rebellious energy and capture the magnetic stage presence that has become Fish's hallmark. Originally featured on her chart-topping 2021 album Faster, these new renditions breathe fresh life into the originals, with Fish's journey mirroring the theme of empowerment that runs through the collection.



For Fish, live performances are where her music truly comes to life. "Making albums is one of my favourite things to do; it's a chance to reinvent myself and my sound," she says. "But the stage is where we bring the songs to life. I feel I connect the most with my audience from the stage. There's something uniquely special about that energy—raw, unpolished, with no big fixes or edits. It's about what you can do with the moment, and I think capturing that is crucial." With the release of her live tracks, fans can now experience that energy wherever they are, a reminder of the magic she creates on stage.

2024 has been a standout year for Samantha Fish, highlighted by a Grammy nomination alongside collaborator Jesse Dayton for their album Death Wish Blues. The record debuted at #1 on the Billboard Blues Charts, holding that spot for three consecutive weeks, marking Fish's fifth chart-topping album. Over the summer, she toured with Slash on his S.E.R.P.E.N.T. Tour and opened for The Rolling Stones during the final stop of their North American tour. This fall, she's set to join the Experience Hendrix tour, sharing the stage with blues contemporaries like Kenny Wayne ShepherdEric Johnson, and Christone "Kingfish" Ingram. With a relentless work ethic, Fish performs nearly 200 high-energy shows a year, ensuring her unique blend of raw blues continues to captivate ever-growing audiences.

In November, Fish will headline the Ruf Records 30th Anniversary Tour, celebrating the label's legacy and its dedication to shaping the future of blues music. The diverse lineup features Canned HeatMitch RyderBernard Allison, and Ghalia Volt, each representing different facets of the blues spectrum. As a leading voice in the genre, Fish's role in the tour cements her status as a trailblazer, keeping blues music vibrant while honouring its rich history. Kicking off on November 7th in Pittsburgh, the tour promises an exciting celebration of the blues for both longtime fans and new listeners.

Samantha Fish has gained widespread recognition gracing the covers of Guitar World and Vintage Guitar and receiving critical acclaim from major publications. The New York Times describes her as "one of the most promising young blues performers working," praising her punchy vocals and energetic guitar work. No Depression lauds her versatility, stating, "Samantha Fish can take you on a journey through country, blow your blues away, or slam you with some raucous rawk." Garden & Gun hails her as "one of the new guitar greats," and Guitarist Magazine agrees that Fish "is a force to be reckoned with."
