London Calling

Sarah moved to London in 1999 and gained an insight into the music industry by working as a music promoter in Leicester Square in Sound Republic, (home to the Pepsi Chart Show) and as a music/audio and lighting technician, whilst still performing solo and full band gigs with some of the best session musicians in the UK. In London she worked with a brilliant producer, Jim Bell of ‘All Out Music’ and managed to produce a 12 track CD of her own songs. One of her songs ‘Way of Living’, was then used on a short but powerful film, which is still doing the rounds at the festivals.

Sarah Harrison has been humbled by comments from various people such as the brilliant vocalist Sam Brown. “Did you see Sarah Harrison? F****** Respect Man!”

Huge Sound Small Frame

Xan Phillips, music journalist, wrote “Sarah has one of those remarkable voices that comes from somewhere else. The size and depth of the vocals do not match her frame.” Sarah also went on to sing live on Xan’s radio show. Jim Devlin, Leonard Cohen’s biographer, wrote “there’s a strong ‘voice’ and voice there; it’s a modern sound but rooted in real music, that’s what I hear: no pretend stuff, I hear an honest voice and behind it all a beating heart with stories to tell.”

Currently Sarah is working on a few different music projects as well as performing her songs acoustically or with her fantastic band, ‘SHB’ (Sarah Harrison Band). Next on her busy list, she intends to get back into the studio to record all of her new material.
