Sarah is an amazing talent
I highly recommend Sarah. She is truly a gem, extremely talented, kind, and a pleasure having her perform for our group. I’ve have had the benefit of booking talent throughout North America and regular basis so I have a lot of exposure to musicians and live entertainment, and I have to tell you she will not disappoint. She’s very professional communicates very well and made sure that our group had a wonderful night. I highly recommend Sarah. She’s perfect you’re looking for a musician in an intimate setting or a large performance setting she can do it all. Thank you for spending New Year’s with us Sarah.
Traditional music or Folk music can be easily identified with the grass roots working-class people who created it. The rise of folk music began with performers rooted in authentic American folk tradition like Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. In the 1960s Folk singers such as Joan Baez and Bob Dylan began writing "protest music" and had crossover hits that spoke to their generation. Other examples of this crossover are seen in bands who fused Folk and Rock and developed Folk Rock, the most well known of which include The Byrds, Simon and Garfunkel and The Mamas and the Papas.
There are a few things you should do when you book a folk singer. First, you should listen to audio and watch video samples. This will ensure that you book the best for your special event. Next, be sure to get a contract. Make sure to read this carefully and watch for specifications made by the singer. Last, as you should with anything you purchase, read reviews and get references. Talk to people in the area and previous clients about the performer and get feedback. Search for Folk Singers in Burlington, Ontario above.
