We've experienced the talent of this bassist for decades now, she has been a presence on many releases from the Atlanta area. More recently, she has toured with artists like Indigo Girls, Ani DiFranco, B-52's, Joan Osborne, Fiona Apple and more. An album in which she's center-stage is more than overdue, and we welcome this 2000 release on Ani's Righteous Babe label with open arms! It's a joyous celebration of the groove: 10 tracks of pop-funk pleasure, in which her dance-driven melodies and vocals (plus bass, guitar and keyboards) are partnered with thoughtful lyrics by 5 women songwriters, including Ani, Indigo Emily Saliers, and Kristen Hall. Sara and the players, including Ani on backing guitar and vocals, BETTY on backing vocals, and Ann Klein on guitar, have made it beautiful.
