Nashville-based artist and Wrensong Publishing writer, Sally Barris, has managed to be successful in the mainstream world of country music without giving up her folk & Celtic roots.
Her unique style, influenced by artists such as: Dolores Keane, Tony Rice, Dougie Maclean, Triona Ni Dhomhnaill & Richard Thompson, is what makes her stand out in a city known for “cookie cutter” talent. Whether in her own hands or those of a well-established artist, such as, Lee Ann Womack, or a newcomer like American Idol finalist, Kellie Pickler, Sally’s music is unmistakably recognizable.
Some catalog highlights include: “Reluctant Daughter” (Martina McBride), “Some Things I Know” (Lee Ann Womack), “I’m On My Way” (Kellie Pickler), “The Innocent Years” (Kathy Mattea) and “Honesuckle Sweet” (Jessi Alexander) which appeared in the Miramax film An Unfinished Life.
The Minnesota native is currently in the studio working on her 3rd album, a collection she’s referring to as “songs from the Celtic woman”. "My first love is folk music, especially folk songs from the U.K.”, she says. “After touring solo for years in England, I felt it was high time to start being who I really am – a folk singer!” Look for Restless Soul available Nov. 2007.
Also available: Little Voice (2004) and Reluctant Daughter (1999).
