Биография

Sarah Klang has enjoyed plenty of success in her career to date, with three Top 5 albums in her homeland of Sweden as well as the Swedish Grammy for Best Album twice.. Yet none of that could prepare her for an entirely different journey. Leaving her twenties behind and becoming a mother with her first child became the catalyst for a new cycle of songs all grounded in personal, but also general shared human, experiences. Sarah says, “‘Mercedes’ is a letter to my daughter - this is the song I wrote when I was expecting her. A promise of eternal love. And that I will do my best.” Hailing from Gothenburg, Sarah debuted in 2018 with ‘Love In the Milky Way’ which won Best Album at the Swedish Grammys, while 2019’s ‘Creamy Blue’ earned further acclaim with Grammy nomination for Best Album and Best Alternative Pop, as well for European Album of the Year at the IMPALA Awards. While her sound had previously touched upon a mix of influences (‘60 and ‘70s pop, Americana, an undercurrent of country), 2019’s ‘VIRGO’ - another Swedish Grammy winning album - then broadened her scope to include elements of ‘80s synth-pop and ‘90s R&B. Tastemaker praise soon followed, notably from i-D, Rolling Stone and Clash. ‘Mercedes’, written with her regular collaborator and the track’s producer, Kevin Andersson, starts a new chapter in Sarah’s career, which will continue with further releases as 2023 progresses.
