***********Hello....During my childhood I was constantly surrounded by music since my father was a lutherian priest and streetmusician. Both my parents would regulary sing together at home and in different churches. And you would often see my father playing old gospel hymns with his small accordion on the streets of Sweden. Due to this my siblings and I also had to play these songs on the streets at a very early age. This usually happened with some resistance but never less this is where my musical journey started.Whereever I have been and during my travels, music has always been a consistence part of my life. Helping me to feel at ease when I have been far away. I only know, that I have loved, won and lost. All this has lead to doussins of different feelings and emotions. I write songs not becuase I neccesarily have to, but I know that everything feels better afterwards. Like something has started to heal. My lyrics is often about the seeking of beauty, freedom, love and identity. Its the contrast between pain, joy, sorrow and ecstacy that fascinates me. Maybe the words that we so often are searching for already has been written in our unconsiousness. We just have to let time pass and then maybe our dreams, songs and stories can carry us longer than we thought was ever possible. I want to reach the unreachable, the core of pain, the warmth in joy, the belief in the impossible.LOVE from Sara :)PHOTOS TAKEN BY SIMON JOHANSSON 08
