Sometimes Analogue, Always Reliably Algorhythmic…
Born in North London, multi instrumentalist, composer, performer and sound artist; S.A.A.R.A, began her career in music as a bass player.
Over the years, she honed her songwriting, production and performance skills through her involvement in a diverse range of projects including Ezra Bang and Hot Machine (“guerilla funk”), Ash Walker (trip-hop) and, most recently Westerman (alt-pop).
As a solo artist, she pays homage to her influences; Kate Bush, Björk, Grace Jones, Gil Scot-Heron, Sly and the Family Stone, in refreshingly original tracks that feature synth, woodwind, beats and bass.
S.A.A.R.A weaves hypnotic bass lines around big beats, synth hooks and woodwind riffs before floating her distinctive vocals through the mix. With roots in indie, disco, punk, funk, EM and afrobeat, the result is club tracks, performed live, reclaiming the dance floor from the DJ!
Described as “orchestral funk” (Ollie Winiberg, BBC Essex Introducing), the live band deliver energetic gigs that command the crowd to D.A.N.C.E.
