Sam Payne
Sam Payne's performances of his original stories and jazz-inflected folk music have turned the heads of critics and audiences around the west. Alone or part of Savoy, his jazz quartet, Payne's arresting stage presence, his craft as a poet/storyteller, and his soaring tenor voice have established him as an enduring and engaging performer. A veteran of the Timpanogos and Weber storytelling festivals, Payne has brought his engaging stories and jazz-inflected folk tunes to halls in Canada, Bulgaria, and Tokyo and from coast to coast in the United States. In addition to maintaining a career as a performing artist, he serves as the school director of Pioneer High School for the Performing Arts and hosts "The Apple Seed," a podcast featuring stories from around the world.
