about

"Testimony", is the word that best describes my first album. It is a story, my story, 12 stories about life and survival,the loss of love and finding it again, trying to be confident in this moment of time,in all your beauty and with all your flaws. Looking the beast in the eye and finding true beauty and sometimes just the beast staring back at you.
Creating this album has been an adventure beyond belief and I am happy to share it with you. If you like my music please spread the word, thanks for your support! Love Sara

THANK YOU!
It has been quite a journey.....and I would not sit here right now writing this down without the immense support of a lot of people! Making this album has been a challenge beyond belief but gave me so much in return. All this time I have received a lot of help from many different people, it was heart-warming and gave me strength when times were rough and the road rocky.
And..look at where I am now!
So to everyone that has given their energy, thought, but most of all patience, love and a piece of themselves to this album, I thank you with all my heart! (hartjes teken)
I want to give special thanks to: Arnold de Haan (de Haan Minerale oliën), for his generosity and belief in me!
Also I would like to give special thanks to my support group: My parents for giving me my love for music, believing in me and cheering the loudest at any gig ;-), my brother for always being there, sharing your wisdom and beautiful heart , Felies, you are my best friend through everything, always there by my side from wise little girls to immature grown-ups ;-), always able to crack me up when I sometimes feel more like crying, to my grandmother, Han & Willem for the love and support and to all of my dearest friends!
And my extra special superthanks to Jos, you have been here through it all, through heartache and laughter, picking me up when I was down and celebrating our highs together, thank you so much for aways believing in me when I at times did not believe anymore. I am lucky to have a place in your heart. x
A huge thank you to everyone that contributed to this album by giving their love , support, hard work, insight and vision: It is much appreciated!!
Budy Mokoginta, for your vision, wisdom and patience and showing me a new direction even when I felt left out at sea;-), my wonderful band: Danny la Haye, Damian Corlazzoli, Maarten Molema, Frans Verburg for sharing their ideas and beautiful music on this album.
To all the additional musicians on the album that gave their heart and soul to make me sound better, Tom Beek, Ilja Reijngoud, Jan van Duikeren, Michelle Oudeman, Shirma Rouse, Rob de Nijs, Maarten van Damme.
To Hans Reitzema, for your friendship and beautiful album photography , Jacky van Heist for giving me her time energy and vision for the artwork, Willemijn Batteljee for the make-up that brought out my inside ;-), Mark Brants for working with me on my first video and capturing the process.
To Paul Versteeg for the mics that made us sound good.
And to all my friends that helped me brainstorm over the numerous choices that kept me awake at night and let me pick their brains through the process, some nights over chicken and rosemary potatoes, some over coffee.
You all have given me so much! Thank you!
Last but not least, thanks to the lovers of my music, giving their energy and moral support and to everyone buying this album and supporting my music.
It was an inspiring road, I learned a lot!
This album is dedicated to my loved ones, you know who you are. x
It is a story, my story, written thruthfuly and bold, this is what happened, what I experienced , what I witnessed, , it is....my testimony.

Love, Sara
