Sarah Pillow is genre-less. She has been browbeaten and bullied by society's norms to pigeonhole herself over the past 3 decades of professional singing, but it is, sadly, impossible.
Sarah wanders, like the pilgrim in Barbara Strozzi's Il Romeo, unmoored and untethered between jazz, early music, opera, and broadway. How irresponsible! You must define yourself, the critics say!!
But no....the greatest pleasure comes to the nomad, who indulges herself in the many cultures, history and meaning behind each song, no matter from what century or style it originates.

My newest recording: Marc Wagnon's Interesting Times (Buckyball Records BR029)
Exploring themes of science, history and contemporary times, these songs feature intricate arrangements, fluid vocal lines, and engaging solo performances. Stylistically firmly anchored in contemporary jazz, this inspired release reflects on the very 'Interesting Times' we live in, and it all translates into a realistic and hope-filled view of the future.
Check out our latest video from track 6 of Interesting Times: The Celestial Mill
