Sarah Jane Morris
Sarah Jane Morris is a truly amazing singer and songwriter who shows a gleeful disregard for the boundaries between genres. Jazz, soul, pop and contemporary classical are all to be found in her amazing three and a half octave range. Sarah Jane brings with her the stellar band of Martyn Barker drums, Tim Cansfield guitar, Tony Remy guitar and Henry Thomas bass. Look out for the new album, 'Migratory Bird' recorded with guitarist Marc Ribot and another planned CD release early in 2009 called, 'Where It Hurts'. More Sarah Jane Morris
