Hi, I'm Samantha! I'm a professional harpist with a music degree and a love of video game music! I've been making harp covers on [Youtube](http://www.youtube.com/c/samanthaballard) since 2012, and started streaming harp on Twitch in 2018. My mission is to play the music that brings me the most joy and share that joy with others. I'll mostly be streaming harp here, with the occasional game stream too, and I play a variety of music styles, from VGM and anime music to pop and classical and I'm always adding more. Take a look at my !sl if you want to request something! My cat's name is Bilbo and sometimes he likes to sing along :) 06/21/2018 Became an Affiliate! 08/15/2018 400 followers! 09/29/2018 500 followers
