about
Some refer to it as "small town": it's not urban folk and it's not country, but maybe somewhere in between with a little bit of everything in it. Sara's music is drawn from her myriad influences: from learning classical piano while living on a hippie farm and listening to her parents' 70’s folk records; to studying world music at UBC (where she learned to play the accordion, the pipe organ, a Chinese lap-harp kinda thing, Balinese xylophone, and she even sang a little jazz among other things); to being lulled to sleep by the sound of Mexican wedding music in the slums of Tijuana; to the beauty of church and choral traditions; to her humble guitar's yearnings while living in her camper van for her formative years. She has sang and played accordion with the likes of Ari Neufeld, Barnaby McRae of Cowboys and Indians, and James Lamb of Wicker Robot, and is having fun singing rootsy traditionals in a girly trio (that has yet to be named). In the end she's got a story to tell with her ever-changing mood and voice. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
