Blanco White has captivated us once again with his stunning new track “Samara”, released on Friday 13th March.
White’s incredible folk vocal soars over an addictively driving psych-rock inspired guitar line in this track, marking a significant departure from his soothing Latin American-style folk releases of 2019, “On The Other Side”, “Papillon” and “Desert Days”. However, the talent, uniqueness, exoticism and poignance of Blanco White as a musician remains.

“Samara” is the perfect taster for the diversity of the sounds on White’s forthcoming debut album “On The Other Side”, expected to release in June 2020.
White’s ability to capture a high level of attention to detail in his lyricism is a pure reflection of the genius of his music, and has earned him coverage in Clash Magazine, Wonderland Magazine, The Independent and more, as well as millions of listens across streaming services.
Blanco White is the solo project of Londoner Josh Edwards, originating in 2014. After studying guitar in Cádiz (Spain), and later the Andean instrument the charango in Sucre (Bolivia), Edwards’ aim was to begin bringing together elements of Andalusian and Latin American music alongside influences closer to home. The result is beyond exotic and otherworldly.
Releasing his self-produced debut EP “The Wind Rose” on Yucatan Records in early 2016, he later recorded his second EP “Colder Heavens” that same year with producer Ian Grimble (Bear’s Den, Matt Corby, Daughter), and released it last spring to critical delight. The Nocturne EP was released on the 29th September 2018. His 2017 single “El Búho” off “Colder Heavens” was premiered via Wonderland Magazine, describing his music style as “infused with exotic flair and experimentation”.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
