ABOUT
Sarah Jane Morris is an internationally known singer-songwriter with fifteen solo albums since establishing herself as a lead-vocalist in the 1980s with bands such as The Republic, Happy End and The Communards. Don’t Leave Me This Way was a worldwide hit in 1986, in which she duetted with Jimmy Somerville.
The Sisterhood is her latest project. It is about ten female singer-songwriters who have influenced her the most: Bessie Smith, Billie Holliday, Nina Simone, Miriam Makeba, Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell, Ricky Lee Jones, Annie Lennox and Kate Bush. She has written these songs to tell each singer’s story, using words and musical form to build sound-pictures. A whole world of music is reflected in the art of these ten women.
Sarah currently lives in St Leonards on the English south coast, and is visiting Cape Town, South Africa in March to perform this unique concert in the place where Miriam Makeba rose to international fame as Mama Africa.
