When her label, Epic Records, pressured Sara Bareilles to write a love song for them, she responded with one giant middle finger of an anti-love song back, creating one of the biggest songs of the 2000s – all by herself. That song, “Love Song,” catapulted Sara into the spotlight and radio stations everywhere, becoming a bold declaration of artistic independence and establishing her as a peerless combo of vocal heft and songwriting talent. Its defiant lyrics and infectious melody earned her a Grammy nomination and proved the importance of staying true to yourself.

Her journey from breakout hit songstress to one of the most respected singer-songwriters of her generation by her peers (and getting serious kudos from Carole King and Elton John for her covers of their songs) is a testament to her authenticity and immense talent, being self-trained as a vocalist and pianist. Her music is a masterful interplay of vulnerability, sheer vocal power, wit, and emotional depth, as seen on gut-wrenching ballads like “Gravity” to empowering FU anthems like “King of Anything.” Her knack for melodicism without any need for other songwriters further demonstrates this natural talent.

Sara has gone beyond writing songs destined for the charts, but also through her work on Broadway’s Waitress, with songs like “She Used to Be Mine” becoming a modern Broadway classic. The success of Waitress earned her Tony and Grammy nominations, further cementing her as a multi-dimensional artist. Sara is known for her powerful live performances (notably her cover of Sia’s “Chandelier”) and is always in demand for tribute concerts and cover performances.
