Her release “Lonesomeville” charted number 2 on the US/European Americana F.A.R. Charts To date, Sampou has released seven albums of original material. At present, Sampou writes, teaches, and dedicates herself to an on-going venture into the world of Jazz and Americana music as well as writing for Film & TV. www.LesSampouMusic.com


“Sampou’s passionate vocals are simply stunning, now ballsy and rough-edged, then purry and seductive, while the only problem with her original songs is trying to decide which is the least sensational. I strongly suggest you check her out.” 3rd COAST MUSIC, Texas
"Sampou never wavers from a steady tone of genuineness...sharply observant songs." DOWNBEAT


"Sampou has written all the songs of "Lonesomeville" with Raymond Carver's hard-edged minimalism and Emily Dickinson's startling poetic images." Chris Bergeron/DAILY NEWS STAFF
