Born in Spain and brought up in Chicago, Sarah's first experience of performing on stage was touring the US and Canada as a member of The Chicago Children's Choir.
In the mid-1990s she made her way to Ireland, where her authorship of The Irish DADGAD Guitar Book led to invitations to write regular music columns and reviews for Hot Press magazine and Dublin's Evening Herald.
It was following her move to Cornwall, with her Irish husband and their two children in 2007, that she struck up a friendship with a fellow mum outside the gates of their children's school. That fellow mum turned out to be Zoë Pollock, writer and performer of 1991 UK Top 5 single Sunshine On A Rainy Day.
The pair soon found themselves co-writing songs for an album released in 2008 under the band name Mama: "I owe Zoë a massive debt of gratitude for getting me into song-writing in a serious way," says Sarah.
