About Sam Ransom

SAM RANSOM is a high-energy cover band blending the grit of classic rock, the soul of blues, and the groove of funk and R&B. Based in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh and Monroe Counties, the group brings a versatile, crowd-moving sound to every stage, from clubs and breweries to festivals and private events.

• Scotty Alexander Marlin (SAM) – Guitar & Vocals

• Rahmel Markis Nelson (RANSOM) – Bass VI & Vocals

With a setlist that stretches from Aerosmith, Hendrix, and The Eagles to Amy Winehouse, Childish Gambino, and Post Malone, the band creates a dynamic live show that keeps audiences hooked. Their versatility shines whether they’re channeling the raw energy of Southern rock, the smooth grooves of soul and R&B, or the edge of alternative hits.

SAM RANSOM isn’t just a cover band — they’re a full-on experience built on musicianship, energy, and the kind of chemistry that can only come from three seasoned performers sharing the stage.
