The familiar saying “everything is bigger in Texas” is earning some truth to its name as county music vocal powerhouse, SaraBeth, dusts off her boots and hitsthe Nashville music scene.
Born and raised in Dallas, SaraBeth is a contemporary country singer and budding songwriter who is seamlessly making her mark in Nashville as an all American, sweetly southern artist with an edge. Smart, beautiful and tremendously talented, SaraBeth is the breath of fresh air the music industry needs.
Working with all-star producer Dean Sams, member of the superstar group Lonestar and producer/label head of Circle S Records, SaraBeth is gearing up to release her first EP, “Kickin’ & Screamin.’” Made-up of 5 original country tracks with a kick, SaraBeth is ready to bring her music to listeners everywhere. “I view myself as an independent, down to earth kind of girl,” says SaraBeth, “so my album is encouraging and reflects those aspects of my personality.”
When Sams first met SaraBeth, he knew he had just met a future star. He recognized her talent immediately and knew her robust potential. "The first thing that interested me in working with SaraBeth was her incredible work ethic,” Sams says. “In a time when so many people want to sit around and wait for success to come to them, SaraBeth is a rarity with her focus, drive and willingness to do whatever it takes to be successful. As a singer, SaraBeth is understated and heartfelt. In my opinion, she’s a nice change of pace for the country music listeners.
"But SaraBeth doesn’t want to take all the credit for her passion for music. She maintains that her family plays an essential role in her story, citing them as the source for a lot of her motivation.
“My younger brother was drafted to play pro baseball for the Cardinals, my dad recently wrote a book on motivation and inspires people all over the world, and my mom is the glue that holds us all together. With all these incredibly successful and driven role models in my life, I thought, how can I NOT go after this dream?”
Being born and raised in the Texas music scene, SaraBeth knows country music. Her pride for her home state, coupled with her love for genuine, authentic lyrics, has influenced her style and kept her true to her roots. And that hasn’t gone unnoticed: she’s already garnered an enormous and loyal fan base in and around Texas. “I've been singing around Texas since I was in high school. Some of my favorite memories are singing at the Garland and Wylie Opry,” SaraBeth remembers. “It's crazy how after I recorded my own original songs and posted a few on SoundCloud, people began sharing my site. Nothing is more exciting than receiving a message saying that someone was moved by my song.”
After crossing over into Nashville territory, SaraBeth began collaborating with some of the best, most respected songwriters in Music City, sparking her love for songwriting. One of her very own original songs ended up making the cut for the upcoming EP, and she hopes to continue writing more in the future. “Each song I've recorded was selected based on the lyrics and message,” says SaraBeth. “I want those who listen to my songs to walk away uplifted and encouraged. Life is too short to be negative!”
Starting with only a vision, Sarabeth dove in headfirst to begin turning that vision into a very vivid reality. She took it upon herself to assemble the team, the image, the music—everything. In other words, she believed in herself enough to successfully put the pieces of this dream together. Making her CMA Festival debut, SaraBeth recently played in the City of Hope Celebrity Softball Challenge amongst Florida Georgia Line, Lauren Alaina, Scotty McCreery and many other celebrities during country music’s most popular festival in Nashville.
SaraBeth recently opened for X Factor winner Tate Stevens and is set to perform at Panama City Beach’s most popular country music festival, so visit http://www.sarabethmusic.com for upcoming shows.
