Drop-In Session with The Lunar Samples

Portland based veteran singer-songwriter Steve Wilkinson is set to release his most emotionally resonant and sonically adventurous album yet, June 7th at Showdown Saloon with his new band, The Lunar Samples.

Steve, along with fellow Lunar Sample Joel Roth, dropped by the PRP studio for our latest Sounds of PDX with their debut album in tow and a release gig on the horizon.

The Lunar Samples – comprised of Grant Cumpston, Scott Van Schoick, Jason Montgomery and of course Steve and Joel – bring a grounded yet high-octane energy to Wilkinson’s seasoned songwriting. There’s also a star-studded line-up of local talent that contributed to the making of TLS’ self-titled album including Steve Drizos, Jenny Conlee-Drizos, AND MORE….

We heard a couple tunes (our personal fav “Inseparable Love” and first album track “Love Comes Around”), chatted about letting the music flow and the fantastic night planned for their release celebration including pals Haymaker and Desert Shame. It’s sure to be a great night of music…grab your tickets at Showdown Saloon, snatch a copy of the album on Bandcamp or your local music store and stay tuned for how to be-in-the-know about all things The Lunar Samples (and Joel’s project Garden Flowers too!).

Thanks Steve and Joel for dropping by…take a listen to our chat …GOOD TIMES!
