Blues guitar ace Samantha Fish will play a pair of San Antonio shows Thursday at Sam’s

For her debut with Rounder Records, guitar hero Samantha Fish chose a title that sums up the dichotomy of the modern world: Kill or Be Kind.

Fish sought to achieve a balance between her bluesy guitar leads and an accessible, story-oriented, hooky ap proach to the tunes. To help achieve this, she collaborated with professional song smiths who have written with superstars from Luke Bryan to Kelly Clarkson.

5 p.m. and 8 p.m. Thursday, March 25, $35-$250, Sam’s Burger Joint, 330 E. Grayson St., (210) 223-2830, samsburgerjoint.com.
