I met Sarah a bunch of years back at the Edison deli in New York City. I have since gotten to know her well. She’s a funny girl. Sarah lives outside of Woodstock, NY on a mountain looking over a lake. She was born to Jewish parents in Tulsa, Oklahoma (they must have been lost - I’ve never heard of a Jew in Oklahoma). Sarah’s grandmother is a survivor of the holocaust. Her grandmother’s wedding gown made out of sewn-together parachutes is hanging up in the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington. In 2008, she journeyed to Ukraine to to stand with her grandmother in front of the same dress on display at the Bergen Belsen Museum in Hanover. Sarah is a keyboard player first. Her earlier works are largely based around her piano playing. She has since expanded to using analog synthesizers, clavichord, celesta, vibraphone, or anything she can get her hands on. Sarah is a prolific artist who has made a whole bunch of records so far. She likes to move around between acoustic, rock, electronic. I think her curious nature makes her try whatever strikes her fancy at that time. This makes for an interesting body of work. She toured with Peter Murphy of Bauhaus in 2004, and with Electronica Band ‘Delerium’ in 2008. Sarah Fimm’s music has been used on MTV’s Read world and road rules, Mark Hamill’s ‘Comic Book: The Movie’, DEBS Soundtrack, the Lifetime channel and others. Sarah has recently decided to release a lot of music so this should get interesting. In 2009 alone, Sarah put out ‘White Birds’, ‘Red Yellow Sun and the most recent release “The Vanishing Sessions” aka “The B-Sides Collection”. I am not going to write who she sounds like since you can listen and decide for yourself. Who am I to tell you anything? |
