Sarah Cheevers - who is she?
. . . a talented and evocative singer, songwriter, and guitarist
Sarah's voice and songwriting captivate her audiences with vivid imagery
and humour.
Her first CD, Entwined, was released eight months after her debut
public performance at Vancouver's Railway Club in August 1999. She
performed in 2001 at Vancouver's New Music West as a folk pop duo
with Doug Deep as well as the electronica Elle'ectricity show at Sonar.
Her song about September 11th was aired on CBC and performed at the
Vancouver Art Gallery peace rally for thousands of people.
Sarah has regular gigs, performing in coffee shops, pubs and larger
clubs. This last year she has also performed in Los Angeles, San Francisco,
and the UK. Sarah has more recently been performing as a duet and
with her band.
Sarah's lyrics have caught the attention of CBC's Paul Grant ...
"I think she's going to make a pretty big splash in the Vancouver
music scene and beyond as well (January 2001)".
"Highs & Lows is hypnotic and seamless . . . sophisticated
and the way the voice weaves in & out of itself is exquisite (March
2001)".
In January 2001, Sarah was voted No.1 by fellow competitors on mp3.com's
Compo Ten competition.
Since her first CD, Sarah has worked and recorded with a number of
producers, experimenting with different musical styles. Her next CD
will show her growth as a songwriter and musician. She is currently
recording at Hipposonic Studios in Vancouver, B.C.
She has also recently had the pleasure of recording with Kelly Joe
Phelps, a beautiful songwriter and one of the best living slide guitarists.
