...Sarah Dashew (pronounced like “cashew” with a “d”) grew up sailing around the world with her family, listening to Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, Van Morrison and Janis Joplin. Out at sea with so much time on their hands, Sarah and her sister spent hours learning how to sing in harmony a la Kermit the Frog and Fozzie Bear in The Muppet Movie. But as compelling as the Muppets were, the life-changing experience that made Sarah want to be a musician didn’t come until years later. She started college and went to a soul-shaking, gospel choir concert that left her knees weak and her heart full. The next day she joined the choir and started singing in 4-part harmony.
Then Sarah bought a cheap guitar with a bent neck and rusty strings and started playing, singing and writing. What emerged was a soulful, smoky, rich voice and heartfelt, storied lyrics. She moved to Austin, Texas, put a band together and toured all over the US and Europe. She opened for artists like Suzanne Vega, Michelle Shocked, Steve Earle and the Cowboy Junkies.
Longing for the smell of the saltwater air, Sarah left Texas for Los Angeles and started working under Chuck Plotkin’s (Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan) tutelage.
In 2006 he produced her debut alubm, Jealous Girl. Unanimously praised by reviewers, 2 tracks quickly found their way onto NBC's "My Name is Earl", followed by another track featured on ABC's "Ugly Betty" celebrity playlist.
Tours followed in New York, Texas and the Pacific Northwest. Now hard at work recording a new album, Sarah is busy baring her soul in the studio and on stage in Los Angeles.
