Sam’s musical journey started at the young age of 9 when his
father brought home an organ with intentions of playing it himself. He soon discovered
Sam was playing it with more of an interest and ability than he.
Recognizing his innate talent, it didn’t take much convincing for
Sam’s parents to start him with organ lessons.
By the time he reached high school he was quite an accomplished
musician, playing professionally in bands as well as doing solo “gigs.”
After graduating high school, Sam attended the prestigious Berklee
College of Music in Boston. Receiving his degree in Performance, he then moved to
Nashville where he began playing as a session musician, recording with some of the Music
City’s finest artists. He also worked as a staff writer with Otis Blackwell, known
for penning such hits as “Don’t Be Cruel” and “All Shook Up.”
Feeling his music beginning to shift,
he started writing original solo piano compositions
and produced and released his debut CD, “A Time For The Heart.”
Sam began researching something a few people discretely discover.........
the healing effects of music. Often taking retreats in beautiful nature settings
as inspiration, a natural creative process was born.
“Music has always had the power to transform my thoughts and
feelings, taking me to another place and time” - Sam Pasco
This new-founded knowledge caused his music to take a new direction,
a direction of healing, inner peace, and over all well-being. Knowing this to be his musical purpose and intention, Sam soon began writing
and composing music to evoke these powerful “transforming emotions.”
His latest CD, “Wings of Peace” takes the listener on a meditative
and self-discovery journey, as individuals experience an awakening and renewal of their
souls.
Today Sam continues his work writing, composing, and performing
at some of the largest health and wellness expos in the U.S. and abroad, as well as conducting workshops on the
healing benefits of music.
