Sarah McLachlan

Musician

Sarah McLachlan (born April 28, 1968, Halifax, Nova Scotia) is a Canadian singer-songwriter known for piano-driven, emotive songs and a prominence in the 1990s adult-contemporary and folk-pop scenes. She co-founded the Lilith Fair tour and has released several acclaimed albums including Fumbling Towards Ecstasy and Surfacing.

Born April 28, 1968 in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Debut album Touch (1988/1989). Co-founder of Lilith Fair. Widely known for the songs "Angel" and "Building a Mystery".

Two DeBaser reviews praise Sarah McLachlan's songwriting, emotive voice and introspective themes. Fumbling Towards Ecstasy is presented as a peak of her work; Afterglow as a mature, melancholic, folk-tinged album. Both reviews note careful production and lyrical depth.

For:Fans of 90s singer-songwriters, listeners of piano-driven folk/ambient pop, readers interested in lyrical, introspective music.

 I am very surprised not to find any review of Sarah McLachlan on DeBaser, if only for the fact that her "Angel" (featured in Surfacing from 1997) has been presented in every possible way, among various soundtracks and guest versions.

 The central theme is that of failure, struggling love, guilt, and the hope glimpsed on the horizon.
