About Me |
|
: : : : : : : After releasing two solo records on JAGJAGUWAR, Sarah put out her first record with the Pearls last year. The record, entitled WHITE LIGHT, has earned her compliments from another famous bandleader Dave Matthews: “Sarah’s music kills me,” he says, “beautifully from the ground up, no plastic. I got stuck behind a logging truck today. I was listening to Sarah. It was great.”Sarah has shared the stage with such a variety of acts as Hall & Oates, Ben Folds Five, King Wilkie, the Hackensaw Boys, Lilys, Oakley Hall, and Loudoun Wainwright III. : : : : : : : P R E S S : : : : : : : It’s an album both spare and powerful… combining the forcefulness of rock and the soul of country. At the sonic center of the album is Sarah’s voice, the newly mature, edge-of-tears, catch-in-the-throat, flat-out heartbreaking voice. -- Tobias Beard, C’VILLE Gorgeous, catchy and ultimately moving songs… -- Ryan Muldoon, Richmond-Times Dispatch Every now and then there'll be a record that sounds like it dropped out of the sky with no accompanying context, no obvious influences or antecedents, no preconceived notions of what scene it's supposed to fit into. That's the situation with BLUEBIRD, the excellent new album by Virginia singer/songwriter Sarah White... -- Paul Lukas, New York Press A delicately bare and pretty album that ensures the singer-songwriter a place in the company of Cat Power's Chan Marshall and Edith Frost. Yep, that good. -- Cory Brown, San Francisco Bay Guardian : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : D I S C O G R A P H Y : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : WHITE LIGHT 2006 (Antenna Farm Records) A back porch classic in the making...
