Sarah King’s versatile vocals alternate between coaxing and commanding, tricking the listener into thinking and feeling after being drawn in on the surface by hummable, radio-ready hooks. With songs ranging from blues-influenced murder ballads to fierce female-empowerment anthems, her powerful voice is rooted in Americana and soul. 

King's new single Nightstand, recorded and produced in the Catskill Mountains by Simone Felice and David Baron (The Lumineers, Jade Bird, Bat for Lashes), weaves darkness and strength into a powerful, seductive web of warning.  The slow burning message behind Nightstand is clear: don’t underestimate women. King grew tired of men treating women as less - less human, less deserving of respect, less talented - and flipped the script on traditional murder ballads sung from a male perspective. 

King dissects and divulges secrets of her past to reveal truths about her present. Her songs are equal parts affirmation and lamentation, illuminating the shadows of the human experience. Her writing is intensely personal, immersive, and vulnerable, while at the same time echoing strength and resolve. You’ll feel like you’re sitting on a front porch in the deep south on a sultry summer night with one too many drinks behind you, looking out at a dark, beckoning path toward a future you want to believe in but can’t quite see.
