      Stanford Jazz Workshop Presents: American Roots Music with Sam Reider

      What is “roots music”? You’ve probably been dancing, singing and tapping your toes to it your entire life. Sam Reider has explored American roots music deeply, and he’s followed all of its enticing tributaries to their sources: jazz, folk, blues, world music and more. To bring you closer to the music, Reider will talk a bit and dazzle you with his astonishing virtuosity and soulful performance.

      Sam Reider has spent many years exploring folk music on the accordion. His compositions combine jazz improvisation, folk instruments and grooves with classical structures. He’s been featured at Lincoln Center and on NPR and collaborated with Grammy-nominated artists. Reider leads an acoustic ensemble called The Human Hands and has released two records under his name: Too Hot to Sleep and The Human Hands EP.
