Artist Spotlight: Sick of Sarah

Hey everyone!

Back with a brand new edition of Artist Spotlight for the week! This week I'm bringing to you an upstart band right out of Minneapolis, Minnesota called Sick of Sarah. The band consists of Abisha Uhl on lead vocals and guitar, Katie Murphy on lead guitar and backup vocals, Jessie Farmer on lead/rhythm guitar and backup vocals, Jamie Holm on bass and backup vocals, and Jessica Forsythe on drums and backup vocals. The band has a strong punk minded influence, and blends in sounds from other contemporary artists most notably Paramore and Tegan and Sara to create a diverse blend of alt/indie-punk that you're simply not going to find anywhere else. A majority of alt-rock bands out there in the scene today are dominated by males and they're aren't enough female fronted bands to give a equal balance,  but this group elequently shows that have the vocal chops and prowess to be just as good as the guys are. A great up and coming band with high hopes for a greater wave of success in the future! Some tracks of theirs for you to check out include "Bittersweet" and "Breakdown".
