Epic witchrock from the mountains of Western North Carolina

As Skade, Sam Carroll fuses enigmatic, celtic-inspired vocals with nordic rhythms and soaring cinematic soundscapes, all seasoned with a new age twist. She writes to explore the depths of human emotion through a lens of mystical symbolism, fantasy, and nature with a penchant for epic storytelling. Beginning in 2012, Carroll was a major contributor to recently retired music acts Sirena and Valkyrik and currently performs both as a solo artist and as a member of worldbeat band, sämäs.
