Sarah Burton: Thursday, September 6
Sarah Burton: Thursday, September 6. Doors: 7:30, Showtime: 8:00 PM: Admission: $15.00/$10 All Artists/Students. She’s a rambler, a gambler, a lover and a fighter; Sarah Burton’s steady and soulful voice tells the tales of life with beauty, strength and
weariness, and an ever-present sense of excitement. Her sound rocks and rolls with just the right amount of country and pop influence. Sarah has been spreading this excitement throughout North America since 2006, having her music featured in movies, and raved about in the media. She is introducing Hamilton to her new album ‘Fire Breathers’: “Here is acoustic, rock, bluesy, torch, indie jive, country psychedelic, soul-baring beautiful music that those with a need to hear a new point of view ought to get off their butts and obtain. This album matters.” John McClure, Victory Music Review
Fire Breathers consists of 13 songs spun together by a spaghetti-western love story that follows three imperfect characters –the outlaw, the lady, and the man who was too good — through the torments and the pleasures of the heart. The album will be released in summer/fall 2012 and in the mean-time Sarah is hitting the highways! Tour dates on the “shows” page.
A relentless road warrior who spends months on the road at a time, Sarah released her debut EP Love is for Pussies in 2007, with Juno-award winning producer John Switzer, and followed it up in 2010 with her full-length album Mayflower; “a country dusted folk album of steel guitars and sweet sorrow” Brad Wheeler, The Globe & Mail
