KINDRED SPIRIT are Elaine Samuels performing with her musicians (as a duo, trio or full five-piece band).

KINDRED SPIRIT DUO GIGS - The duo play everywhere, from pubs and weddings to clubs and festivals. They play a crowd pleasing mixture of 60s to present day pop, Irish, country and original songs and tunes! They can play for Irish themed events, like St Patrick's Day, as well as team up with classical strings group 'Flux Ensemble' for special events and with a professional caller to give Ceilidhs!

BAND GIGS - The band play mostly in Live Music Venues where they play Elaine's original songs (clips of many of which can be heard on the MP3s).

The Kindred Spirit Band sound is special and distinctive, driven by "haunting and bewitching" female vocals, guitar, two classically trained , virtuoso, lead instrument players (on electric violin or guitar and flute / sax), dynamic drums and bass guitar and laced with jigs, reels and duelling improvisations.

"Brilliant example of folk rock at its best" Elliot Grimes, Basingstoke Observer

"Honestly one of the best folk rock bands in activity in the UK" Carlos Vaz Ferreira, Prog Rock & Prog Metal Zine
