Sydney, Australia (2002 – present)
Sarah Blasko (born September 23, 1976) is an ARIA Award winning Australian musician. She was born in Sydney soon after her family returned from French-speaking Réunion where her parents had been missionaries. An original and largely self-reliant musical artist, Blasko is known for her writing and production skills, as well as her unique voice and stage presence.
Blasko was first heard in the mid-1990s fronting Sydney band, Acquiesce, after an initial tour of France with founding members Dave Hemmings, Paul Camilleri, and her sister Kate Halcrow. With material written by Blasko and Camilleri, they recorded a single and an EP with producer Hugh Wilson, receiving some local attention.
In 2002, Sarah decided to go solo. Material for the Prelusive EP - a result of initial explorative collaborations with Wilson but fully realised with Nick Schneider and Steve Francis - was originally recorded as demos. However, after becoming disillusioned with the indecisiveness and lack of solid commitment from the labels she met with, Blasko decided to release and promote the material independently. With the financial assistance of then-manager Craig New, she also produced a music video for the leading track, “Your Way”.

I don't understand how "As Day Follows Night" is such a magic and brilliant album and the same time "The Overture and the Underscore" makes me feel nothing. Sometimes it sounds like it is not the same artist...

In the lead up to their Sydney show tonight, I had a chat with the lovely ladies of Seeker Lover Keeper (including Sarah!) about the group's origins, playing in churches and offering communion at their shows. http://musicis-mybf.blogspot.com/2011/11/article-heavenly-sounds.html

I really think Anna Ternheim should be one of the similar artists. [2] Just compare the sound of "As Day Follows Night" to Anna's "Leaving on a Mayday"
