Hijo de actores de una compañía teatral, el cantante, compositor y músico Sam Amidon nació en Brattleboro, Vermont, el 3 de junio de 1981. Samuel Tear Amidon empezó a cantar con su familia y a tocar el violín de niño, antes de actuar en el grupo Popcorn Behavior con su hermano Stefan y un amigo, Thomas Bartlett. Inspirado por la música tradicional irlandesa, amplió sus horizontes musicales al rock independiente, el jazz y el folk americano antiguo, a través de las recopilaciones iniciadas por Harry Smith y Alan Lomax. Tras trasladarse a Nueva York a finales de los noventa, trabajó con los grupos Doveman y Stars Like Fleas, y lanzó su carrera en 2001 con el álbum instrumental Solo Fiddle, al que siguieron una docena más, entre ellos All Is Well (2008), I See the Sign (2010), Lily-O (2014), The Following Mountain (2017), Sam Amidon (2020) y Salt River (2025). Colaboró con varios artistas, entre ellos Bill Frisell, Glen Hansard, Tune-Yards, Jacob Collier, The Blind Boys of Alabama y el Kronos Quartet, en el álbum Folk Songs (2017). Casado con la cantante inglesa Beth Orton, la pareja vivió en Los Ángeles antes de establecerse en Londres. En 2026 publicó el álbum Willows, una reinterpretación orquestal de canciones populares tradicionales arregladas por Nico Muhly, con la Orquesta de Cámara de Noruega dirigida por Pekka Kuusisto.
