Artist in Focus
- Sarah Blasko, Australia

Biography:
First
Album : Sarah Blasko's first album, "The Overture &the
Underscore", propelled her into the public consciousness as a purveyor
of inventive, intelligent pop music, sparking critical acclaim, a raft of
ARIA nominations, a Gold album, sold-out tours and a performance at the
Commonwealth Games closing ceremony.
Recording in April this year, Sarah set to task bringing to life a brand new
set of songs. Complementing the freshness of these new compositions, Sarah
took a four-piece band into the studio - a converted former ballroom - where
the twelve new tracks were recorded live in the spacious and ornate
surrounds. |
Second Album : The result is her second album, What The Sea
Wants, The Sea Will Have. Recorded swiftly, the album displays a more
succinct, a more lucid and a more forthright Sarah Blasko. Her lyrics shoot
straight and the instrumentation is clear and purposeful in its application.
A mature and thoughtful collection of songs and a bold release for an artist
still largely unknown to most, What The Sea Wants, The Sea Will Have marks
the emergence of an important and original talent.
Despite Blasko’s grace in the
face of her humble achievements thus far, her confidence must have grown a
little. She has tiptoed amongst the shadows of people like Jim Moginie, Neil
Finn, Paul McKercher & Victor Van Vugt – people whose contribution to music
stretches back into her suburban youth. Yet Sarah has emerged into the
sunlight on the other side unflinchingly still herself. A mature and
thoughtful collection of songs and a bold release for an artist still
largely unknown to most, “What The Sea Wants, The Sea Will Have” marks the
emergence of an important and original talent.
