Making beautiful music since she was just a youngster, Sarah Jarosz has matured into a deeper kind of artist in her latest release, “Build Me Up From Bones” (sugar Hill). Her voice is strong and hauntingly soothing over the ringing undulations of her guitar. She should make a great addition to the Sunday lineup at Bonnaroo!

Did lunar forces tug at Sarah’s songwriting tides? As she puts it, “I never go into a record thinking I want a recurring theme throughout. But after the fact—and I certainly didn’t plan this—there are four songs that mention the moon in some way. For me, songwriting is an ever changing nature; it’s always fresh, and the moon is sort of like that: always changing, always pulling.”

That the song also takes on love as a subject matter shows Jarosz growing, enough so that she tackles this oldest of topics in surprising new ways. “I feel like my favorite songwriters leave enough things in the song to keep you digging,” she says. “The goal is to write songs that people will make personal to themselves—even if they may be very personal to me.” http://sarahjarosz.com/bio/
