Sam Edelston Unleashes the Dulcimer

Sam Edelston, a trailblazer in modern dulcimer music, makes his debut at the legendary Towne Crier Cafe in Beacon, NY on September 26th. Taking the spotlight on the Salon Stage, Edelston will perform a full concert featuring songs from his groundbreaking debut album, Making Waves—the first-ever classic rock album to feature the fretted dulcimer front and center in a rock band setting. The album blends two original compositions with daring reinventions of classic songs by legendary artists The Rolling Stones, Queen, The Beatles, Chicago, Blondie, Motörhead, Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen, Neil Diamond, Paul Simon, and Brandi Carlile.

Through his live performances, Edelston continues his mission to shatter musical glass ceilings and prove that the three-stringed dulcimer is far more than a simple folk instrument—it’s a powerhouse capable of delivering rock, pop, blues, jazz, and more.

Ultimate Classic Rock raves about Edelston’s “frightening amount of rock mojo for a guy who seems fairly quiet and unassuming.”
