My name is Sam Wilson. I'm in Any Young Mechanic, Pail Hands, short snarl, Standing Water and Jay Eliot Mee's band. Sometimes I spell my last name with an extra n so that your search engine of choice finds me easier.

This is a place where the things I'm working on are compiled. Some projects have more online destinations than others. The more online destinations, the less they are covered on this site. This website exists partially so that I don't have to be on instagram.

A songwriting duo comprised of myself and my buddy Isaac (Standing Water). Our song 'Read A Letter' from our upcoming EP is included on volume two of the 'Sitting In The Same Chairs' compilation by caps lock records.

Jay has just released an EP called Inside Jachin Mee. All of the songs are named after Coen Brothers films that he hadn't seen at the time of writing and recording. I play banjo on the record and do some harmonies. I'm a big fan of this one.

Available on bandcamp and most streamers (except spotify), and there are still some tapes and CDs available if you'd like to email me.

UPCOMING SHOWS:

Sometimes I do a show called the SOME WHERE TAPE SESSIONS: live sets recorded direct to cassette at Some Where House in Tarntanya, Adelaide. I do solo acoustic songs from across a few different projects, there are great acoustic supports and it's all put to tape for the Some Where House archive. Audience members at each show are encouraged to contribute to the archival tape's artwork with drawings, etc... You are also encouraged to bring your own tapes for house music before and after the performances. We can make tapes to order too if you are interested in hearing a particular set. The last session was myself and Adela May on February 26. Please email me if you would like a tape of this show.

short snarl is Thea, V, and myself. Our most recent release is the Self Noise EP. We recorded it at Interim Studios with our pal Matt Schultz. Thea and I sketched out the backing vocal arrangement of Boty on a four-track in a Tiny House in Ōtautahi.

It is available on most streamers (except spotify) and bandcamp. CDs are available via and the Hobbledehoy records website.
