Steadily working his way up the music ladder Sam Moore is fast becoming everyone's hot tip to officially make a big mark on the UK industry in 2006. Currently under the guidance of UB1 Music on an artist/project development program the UK's very own vocal heavyweight is soon to release his debut album "Splendid Isolation".
Sam Moore, who grew up at the tail end of a large Jamaican church-attending family in Manchester, England, was "born in church" with Sunday School and the choir as his hanging suites.
