Gordie Sampson Releases "Almost Beautiful." Listen to the Interview Here!
Ingonish, Cape Breton – August 7, 2011 – Gordie Sampson never anticipated releasing a country album, but when you collaborate with some of the top artists in Nashville on a day to day basis, there was certainly no shortage of material. “Almost Beautiful” was written with many of his long-time Nashville collaborators, and the songs demonstrate why Sampson earned a Grammy Award, multiple awards for his recordings and an international reputation as an outstanding songwriter.
We reached Gordie while he was hosting a song writer’s camp in Cape Breton. Gordie spoke with East Coast Kitchen Party Publisher, Mike Trenholm and you can hear the interview below.

From September until May, Sampson lives and writes in Nashville, where he has become an established member of the community. Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Little Big Town and Faith Hill are just a few American artists who have covered Sampson’s songs. In the summers, he heads back home to Canada to spend time with family and friends in his beloved Cape Breton and to perform in the Maritimes where audiences welcome him, year after year.
