Bio

Sarah MacRae is a Toronto based singer-songwriter. Her music combines
the honesty of folk with catchy riffs, poetic lyrics, and country subtleties to create a unique style that clearly reflects her
personality.

Pulse Magazine praised her for
"…her smoky voice and beautiful tunes,” and exclaimed “…one thing is for
sure: Sarah MacRae can sing!"

Yes, she surely can sing. Her
smoky and alluring voice is often compared to modern singers like Norah
Jones, and pop singers like Colbie Callait and Sara Bareilles. Sarah’s
unquestionable charm and honesty not only comes from her vocal styling
but also from her original compositions, allowing her music to touch the
hearts of all who have had the opportunity to hear her sing. Sarah
MacRae’s lyrics are stories that bring the listener through the battles
and successes of Sarah’s life, almost like stepping into the pages of
her journal.

Sarah completed her newest recording
last summer after spending months hard at work writing & arranging
new material. The original works take the listener on the ups and downs
of a journey through Sarah’s relationships. It features tunes like,
“Lemonade”, “You Are Mine”, and her new tune, “Beautiful”. Sarah’s
blend of laid back acoustic vibes with high-energy grooves gives her EP a
trademark sound.

Sarah’s first CD release was a
compilation of covers and originals, entitled “Something So Right”.
Produced by Emmy Award winner Don Breithaupt and engineered by Juno
winner, John ‘Beetle’ Bailey, it offers listeners the comfort of
familiarity with exciting twists on their favourite songs like,
“Vienna”, “3X5”, and “You Don’t Know Me”.

She has
been perfecting her original material since the age of 14, drawing upon
the inspiration of her family motto “fortis et fidus” (strong and
faithful). It even shows up in one of Sarah’s lyrics, illustrating how
important relationships are to her, as family provides the grounding
factor in her life. With the support of her family Sarah is able to
grow inside & outside of her craft.

Stay tuned to hear
updates on shows in the Toronto area where listeners will get the chance
to hear Sarah do her thing. You know that thing? It’s the thing where
the truth rings, pure & sweet & clear, and you know you are in
the presence of the real deal.


"I have worked with Sarah
MacRae in live performances many times, and for an extended period in
2008 as producer/arranger on her debut CD Something So Right. Her poise
and musicality never cease to amaze me. She is that rare young performer
who seems unfazed by live audiences and the dreaded red (record) light;
her expressiveness shines through in any musical situation. If I were a
betting man, I’d stake a lot on her prospects for success!"
- Don Breithaupt: Emmy Award Winner, Two-Time SOCAN Award Winner, Six-Time CSJA Nominee
