Singer-songwriter Sarah Darling has premiered the video for her new single, ‘Halley’s Comet’.The lead single from Sarah’s forthcoming album, Dream Country, - due out February 10th on Be Darling records - ‘Halley’s Comet’ is one of seven she wrote or co-wrote among the 10 album tracks and is “just a really personal story about a dreamer and that key figure in one’s life who encourages you to do what you love.”
Sarah worked with Nashville based production company Magnetic Dreams over a six month period. “I said I wanted it to be wide open spaces. It reminds me of being home back in Iowa and, of course, there’s a ton of stars,” she says. "As you grow up, fear can change the way you dream, and it’s easy to forget why you do what you love. I think it’s one of those videos that I hope when people see it, it will relate to kids but adults, too. It’s sort of for everyone.”
Produced by Nashville multi-instrumentalist-composer-arranger Larissa Maestro, Dream Country, “a cinematic, dreamy album with strings on it” showcases Sarah’s smooth, escapist song-writing style that crosses country, Americana and contemporary pop. As Sarah explains, “this has been an opportunity to make a record with everything I’ve ever imagined, top to bottom.”
An experienced player in the Nashville scene, Sarah has also supported stadium fillers Carrie Underwood, Kacey Musgraves, Vince Gill and Tim McGraw, and performed at the Grand Ole Opry more than 80 times. Recently she toured the UK with Jenn Bostic and Kyshona Armstrong, selling out each night. Sarah returned in October supporting British chart-topping duo Ward Thomas and will be performing at Country To Country in London in March 2017.
Sarah first made her name in America in 2003 as a top-three finalist on E! Network reality show, The Entertainer. She went on to release two successful full-length US albums, Every Monday Morning and Something to Do With Your Hands. Sarah is now preparing for the worldwide release of Dream Country, her first UK album. From wishing on wandering stars, to never giving up, the new material really captures the spirit of the ones who love to dream. Sarah Darling is sure to take you on whimsical ride through songs about stars, and when cowboys used to ride away into the West, with her new sound that she calls Dream Country.
