Clay, W.Va. – Stomping the ground with a hoot and a holler, Mack Samples dances with a rhythm and beat entirely his own.
The 2003 Vandalia Award-winner – a singer, dancer and musician – was born into a family of musicians in Clay, W.Va. At the time, it was fine for music to be in your blood, just as long as it wasn’t in your feet.
I first ran across Mack Samples on the Two-Lane Living website where he writes a monthly column called Rural Free Delivery. This months column is entitled From Neckties to Carhartts and is about the transition from a job to retirement and what he’s learned along the way.
