Born in New England, her earliest memories are of performing for her grandmother's sewing circle (with Nana on piano) and practicing hard on harmonies with a neighborhood friend while working out on the swing set in the backyard.
Equally comfortable singing with young children in their schools or at festivals, as with her Texas-swing band, MAINESQUEEZE, Sammie has been performing for years sharing the stage with well-known local and national musicians.
With a background in art and music, courses and interest in early childhood education and a former daycare teacher, becoming a mom spurred her into songwriting for children and next, to performing it, not just for her son, but for his friends and all over New England.
Most of the songs Sammie performs are original but she also includes some traditional, those of friends and beloved troubadour, Woody Guthrie. Her songs, generally, are written from a child's point of view and reflect their feelings about their world, themselves, Mother Nature and living compatibly with one another. She always includes plenty of playfulness and invites her listeners to actively participate.
