Sarah wowed us in 2025 with her great talent and passion for music, and we can't wait to welcome her back in 2027!
Throughout her concerts, Sarah moves between the battery of instruments onstage with ease and grace, chatting amiably to the audience between songs and occasionally prevailing on them to lend their own voices to the mix.
Her original compositions — which themselves span a wide range of styles, from contemplative ballads to playful blues to atmospheric instrumentals — predominate, but she also sprinkles in the odd folk song, evergreen classic or unexpected contemporarycover.
Born in Spain, raised in Chicago and now living in rural England after spending many years in Ireland, Sarah is as multinational as she is multitalented. She met her longtime manager Martin Stansbury soon after moving in 2007 to Cornwall, in the UK’s southwesternmost corner. Outside the gates of her children’s school, Sarah struck up a friendship with a fellow mum who turned out to be Zoë Pollock, writer and performer of 1991 UK Top 5 hit single“Sunshine On A Rainy Day.” The pair soon found themselves co-writing songs, and in January 2009 they released the critically acclaimed album Crow Coyote Buffalo under the band name Mama.
