Glam Sam and His Combo is an electronic music project by Mats Samuelsson from Stockholm, Sweden.

History

Mats Samuelsson, born in 1965 in Linköping, first played in an indie-jazz pop duo and then went back to university. Later on he has been working as journalist and free author. In 2008 he developed the idea of Glam Sam and His Combo as a jazzy-funky music project with himself acting as Glam Sam. The debut Groovy was released at Lemongrassmusic in 2009. The German label have discovered the Swedish producer and have signed him immediately. The longplayer which unites elements of jazz, funk, rock, hip hop techno and disco sounds has received good critiques.[1][2] After the release of the single "The Last Days of Disco", the second album The Paradise Groove was released in summer 2010 placing particular emphasis on serving the dancefloor. Critiques in many countries were all positive.[3][4] In January 2012, the EP The Riviera Sessions was released, containing more jazz and downtempo elements than the previous releases.[5]
