While recording The Strokes album Room on Fire in NY, Strokes producer, Gordon Raphael heard Saras version of the Janis Joplin track, Piece of my Heart, got in touch and has been one of Saras biggest supporters and producer ever since. Saras debut EP was recorded when she was 16.
A recent presence on myspace.com has widened the bands fan base, not only in the UK and USA but to people all over the world with thousands of fans all playing and downloading the music, supporting the band and creating a buzz which is reflected at the gigs the band play.
The video for Sad and Gone is currently being played in campuses across the States through Ruckus. Independent American & British radio stations and clubs regularly select the bands tracks for their play lists/club nights. The British Tourist Board in America selected Sara and the band as one of the new rising artists to promote the UK to America on their Visit Britain Rocks website and the BBC have selected Saras video for Sad & Gone to show on their big screen in Manchester City centre this spring/summer.

My name is James Blatchley. I present the folk music programme on an English radio station called Chorley FM. (www.chorley.fm)
I really like the little bit of music I have heard of yours on MySpace and I was wondering if you had anything I could play on the show.
Plus, if you are ever in the North West of England I would be more than willing to give you airtime to do a short acoustic unplugged session/interview.
The show has been running since November and the sessions I have already done are on the podcast page of our website at www.chorley.fm/podcasts.
Please pass this message on to any of your friends who you think would be interested.
