Sarah Blacker Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Sarah Blacker captures hearts & minds each time she steps onto the stage. Called “her own artist” by the Huffington Post with music coined as “soaring folk gospel” by the Patriot Ledger, Blacker has truly become grounded in her strengths as a singer/songwriter, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and artist after years of settling into her craft. Based in the historical coastal city of Salem, MA, it’s no surprise that each note she sings comes infused with a touch of magic. Inspired by nature, connection and the human experience, Blacker’s hope is that listeners find themselves in the uplifting lyrics of her thoughtfully crafted original songs. When it comes to new music, the end of 2025 and early 2026 has kept Blacker busily writing & recording with her husband and bandmate, Aaron Z. Katz. The two will be releasing new material they are coproducing & recording in their home studio, throughout the year. Blacker's newest single, 'Storyline' has been called "powerful, moving, and beautiful," and she notes, "it's a love-song from my body to yours." Blacker, LMHC, MT-BC is also a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Board-Certified Music Therapist, and isn't shy to explore the soulful depths of human existence within her lyrics and melodies. She considers performing to be a collaborative art form and aims to connect with each audiences to transcend the confines of daily life during a shared healing musical experiences. (She can also educate you on the science behind it all). While she is regularly compared to Joni Mitchell with her stop-you-dead-in-your-tracks vocals and unique harmonic twists, she arrives with a side of Classic rock n’roll and jazz. Blacker was raised on Pink Floyd, CSNY, Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, Phil Collins and the songwriters of the ‘90s including Sarah McLachlan and Tracy Chapman, and then went on to study jazz vocals in high school and at the Berklee College of Music in Boston where she graduated with a degree in Music Therapy. As a solo artist, Blacker has toured nationally and internationally playing sold out shows around Germany and the United States with favorite stops being Philadelphia, Central PA, Portsmouth, NH, Cambridge, MA and Asheville, NC. Her band, featuring spiritual song leader, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter, Aaron Z. Katz of Percy Hill on synth bass, percussion and harmonies, and Berklee professor, guitar virtuoso, Carl Eisman on guitars and harmony vocals, provides the perfect backdrop for Blacker's beautifully crafted, evocative songs, vocals, guitar and ukulele playing. Twice named ‘(Female) Performer of the Year' in the New England Music Awards, a Boston-Music Award nominee and CBS Boston 'Artist to Watch, Blacker has supported Sara Bareilles, Jefferson Starship, America, Paula Cole, Richard Thompson, Leon Russell, Loudon Wainright and Suzanne Vega to name just a few. http://www.sarahblacker.com http://www.facebook.com/sarahblackermusic http://www.instagram.com/sarahblacker
