Sam Reider & the Human Hands

Tickets go on sale November 27th! Led by Latin Grammy-nominated accordionist, pianist, and composer Sam Reider, the Human Hands is a collective of innovative acoustic musicians exploring the crossroads of folk, jazz, and traditional music from around the world. Irresistible melodies, joyful improvisation and otherworldly sounds collide in what Songlines Magazine has dubbed a “mash-up of the Klezmatics, Quintette du Hot Club de France and the Punch Brothers.” Reider and The Human Hands got their start playing late night sessions at well-known music venues in Brooklyn. After releasing their 2018 debut record, Too Hot to Sleep, they toured throughout the US, UK, and Europe playing premier venues and festivals like Jazz at Lincoln Center, Celtic Connections, and SFJAZZ. Originally trained as a jazz pianist, Reider has spent his career composing and collaborating with a range of roots, jazz, and classical artists. He’s performed or recorded with artists such as Jon Batiste, Jorge Glem, Sierra Hull and Paquito d’Rivera. In addition to his work as a performer, Reider is a prolific composer and has worked with a variety of chamber ensembles and artists ranging from the Bay Area’s Del Sol Quartet to the San Francisco Girl’s Chorus, and Grammy-nominated violinist Tessa Lark.
