Sarah Sharp

Here's the problem: how do you categorize or summarize someone that is original, of her time, yet classic-sounding, with a voice that simultaneously evokes a world-weary sophistication, mystery and passion? Sarah Sharp’s voice is infused with both smoke and sweetness, and she brings her playful, creative spirit direct from Austin, Texas. Sarah’s sound conjures Dolly Parton holding forth at the Village Vanguard. In Austin, Sarah is a treasure – once the bewitching singer/ songwriter of the famed Jitterbug Vipers, partnering with the swingadelic Slim Richey. She continues to be a respected and much sought-after artist. Her infectious musical twang winks at the inevitability of life's complications, and her music laughs in the face of yearning. Listen to her, and have your heart both break and mend.

"…sly, sophisticated and more than a little habit-forming." – Downbeat Magazine
"Sarah Sharp’s voice just oozes class throughout." – No Depression UK
