A gifted vocalist, songwriter, and musician; Sara Bareilles is about to unveil her latest piece of work. July 16th is marked as the release date for her latest: The Blessed Unrest. This is Sara’s first full-length album since 2010. The album is comprised of thirteen songs with “Brave” as the lead single (released on April 23rd). She recently finished her “Brave Enough” tour having covered 18 cities while promoting her single. “Brave” was received very well and was hailed as one her most “anthemic” songs to date. Hopefully The Blessed Unrest garners equally positive reviews.
For those who are unfamiliar with Ms. Bareilles, here are a few words. Considered a legend/icon by Pandora.com, Sara cites her earliest musical influences as Billy Joel, Elton John, and Fiona Apple (among others). During an interview, she once mentioned, “I’ve always gravitated towards storytellers…”. She clearly has her own voice as an artist, demonstrating unique songwriting skills and vocal ability-combining jazz, soul, and pop.
Bareilles first appeared on the music scene in 2007 with her debut hit single, “Love Song”, garnering tons of fans in the process. She followed up a few years later with a refined album titled Kaleidoscope Heart. Despite the slight gaps between releases, she has never failed to create beautiful music for her loyal fans to enjoy. Known for her smooth soulful voice and benevolent demeanor, Sara is sure to captivate even more fans on her upcoming tour with One Republic. She is scheduled to embark on the tour next month which ends in mid-September.
