About Me

Sam is a trumpeter and singer/songwriter from Houston, TX, and has been a student of music for over 20 years. Now residing in Chicago, Sam is currently touring full-time with live HipHop/Jazz/Soul band, Sidewalk Chalk, and spends most of his downtime promoting his solo work. He is very active on the local scene and has been highlighted at several artist features and radio shows throughout Chicago such as The Gala, Soul Speak, New Cypher, Tweak Central Lounge Radio, and Fearless Radio.

 

​

​Most recently, Sam has been performing around Chicago on ukulele with his acoustic sextet, "The Acoustic Audile" to promote is latest project, SAM T PLAYS THE UKE! Throughout his original music, Sam wants to remain innovative, but also convey a preservation of down-home soul. Sam plans to remain a professional educator and continue to write, perform, and expand as a musical creator.

 

"My aim is to establish myself as a pioneer of new direction within the music scene. Through my writing, consulting, and performing, my ultimate goal is to inspire others to do whatever it is they love most, with the ambition of positively effecting our society. It is my hope that with every path crossed, inspiration transpires."
-Sam

Carey Deadman Review

Sam was a student of mine at Columbia College. Sam is a very personable and reliable young man. He always arrives on time, and is attentive to detail. I give Sam the very highest of praise and I recommend him VERY highly. Sam will be a valuable teacher in your program, and you will be quite happy with him! Anonymous wrote on Tue, 16 Jun 2015

      review from Kristi Franks

      We've loved all of our Taylor Robinson instructors. After moving a couple of times, we're now on our 3rd piano instructor, Sam, and this time we're using the virtual instruction on the web. I was skeptical at first, but it's wonderful!!! I would recommend Taylor Robinson to anyone and now, with the web lessons available, I will! Anonymous wrote on Thu, 24 Sep 2015
