SARAH JAROSZ : BLUE GRASS DEBUTANT

SARAH JAROSZ official site

Just got the CD called "Follow Me Down" and listened to it over and over again, the way some of us used to singer-songwriter albums in the 70's.  Listed as BlueGrass, Sarah is known for her Americana.  Produced by Gary Paczosa and Sarah Jarosz, this singer-songwriter is also capable of playing several instruments.

To quote the bio on her site, "Sarah Jarosz has as rich a skill set as anybody in acoustic music. She plays, not just one instrument, but enough of them to be a one-woman string band: mandolin, octave mandolin, clawhammer banjo and guitar. She sings – in supple tones that transcend the boundaries between folk and pop – and she writes – old-timey ballads and modern singer-songwriter ruminations alike."
