Born and raised in the Great Lakes State, Sam Corbin found his calling at the age of 16 when he picked up a guitar for the first time. He started out in local coffee houses and bars near his hometown of Lansing, Michigan playing original music with an acoustic trio named Sammy and the Conmen. After experiencing some success on a local level, the group recorded and released the full length album "Beneath the Line" in the summer of 2002. Sam left the group in early 2003 in pursuit of a career as a solo artist. He spent the next 3 years traveling around Michigan performing his original material and writing about his experiences. His songwriting is strong, personal, and honest, influenced by artists ranging from Nick Drake and Elliott Smith to Leanord Cohen and Bob Dylan.
