Nominated for the UK's Mercury Music Prize for his debut album in 2012, Sam Lee is blazing a trail as an outstanding singer and song collector. Lee is a 21st-century artist, collecting new versions of old songs on his iPhone and laptop, but his repertoire is full of history. He is the driving force behind the eclectic, award-winning folk club The Nest Collective, which has brought traditional music to new stages and venues, and founder of a burgeoning song collectors' movement that inspires a new generation of performers to draw on living source singers. Impassioned and hugely ambitious in scope, The Fade In Time is a major statement from an artist and group extending the borders of their music beyond its national boundaries to encompass Bollywood beats, Polynesian textures and contemporary classical music. Steeped in drama, love, violence, lore and magic, all evoked with a charged mixture of imagination, ambition and experimentation, The Fade In Time roves the centuries and radically renews a living tradition, a delicate and richly embroidered ecosystem of song uncovered, cultivated and propagated for present and future generations.
