In this episode of "The Journey of My Mother's Son" podcast, I sit down to talk with Sarah King. Sandy and I attended the Philadelphia Folk Festival back in August and one of the incredibly talented artists that we saw perform was Sarah King. After some exchanges through social media and email, I knew that she would be a great guest for the show.  Our timing was great as she has two brand new songs releasing on the same day as this podcast. Sarah received the 2021 Songwriter of the Year award from the New England Music Awards (NEMA). According to the Burlington Free Press, "Sarah King inhabits the dark side of Americana, creating 'high-powered blues-Americana-rock' anchored by her atmospheric voice and rhythmic blues guitar." Her 2021 debut EP The Hour, produced by Simone Felice and David Baron (The Lumineers, Jade Bird), marks her stunning arrival with "Nightstand" named 2020's #1 Best Song in Vermont by County Tracks. King's live show crackles with energy and devil-may-care attitude, earning her support slots for Blues Traveler in 2022, The Steel Woods in 2021, an official showcase at Folk Alliance International in 2022, performances at the 2020, 2021, and 2022 Philadelphia Folk Festival, a performance at the 2022 CT Folk Festival, a night at legendary Caffe Lena in 2022, and a main stage slot at Black Bear Americana Fest 2021.
