Interview with Sam Isaac

Sam Isaac will be donning the acoustic guitar once again and playing alongside yet another great lineup of artists as he plays the Latitude Festival on the beautiful suffolk coast. This is what Sam had to say on this year’s Latitude music festival….

Who are you most looking forward to seeing at this year’s Latitude festival and why?
To be honest it’s got to be the big acts on the main stage this year. I think they’re pretty much the best of any festival all summer. Sigur Ros, Death Cab! Getting to see those bands play at such a great festival is one of the things I’m looking forward to most all this summer. Also my good friends Luke Leighfield and Tim and Sam’s Band on the BBC Introducing Stage on Sunday. They’re doing a collaborative set and its going to be amazing.

What aspect of Latitude Festival interests you the most and why?
It’s just so different from any other festival. The beautiful site, the amazing range of both music and literary and comedy stuff. All in such a small site that you can walk across in just a few minutes. It’s much more easy to get around than something like Glastonbury.

What can people expect you to bring to the festival, do you have anything special planned?
I’ll probably just be bringing my six piece indie-pop band. We’ll be playing some new songs and hopefully getting some musician friends that are playing in other bands on stage to sing some gang vocals. It will be great!

If you weren’t doing this what would you be doing?
Recording my album in a hot studio near London Bridge. Probably fretting, worrying if the songs are ok, wishing I was at Latitude.

What is your favourite colour Sheep?
Plain old white. None of these multicoloured new-age ones.
