About

Sangin’ Sara doesn’t just sing — she transforms space with sound. For more than two decades, her voice has been the hidden architecture behind Grammy stages, sold-out tours, and celebrated recordings, weaving harmonies that elevate legends and inspire audiences worldwide.

Classically and jazz trained, yet rooted in gospel, R&B, and soul, Sara carries the spirit of Sarah Vaughan, Billie Holiday, and Jessye Norman while shaping her own unmistakable style. Her artistry lives at the intersection of power and nuance — from whisper-soft tones to soaring crescendos — every phrase alive with intention.

As Background Vocal Director for Grammy-winning artist Ledisi for over 20 years, Sara has honed her gift for arranging and directing, crafting performances that resonate with precision and heart. Her recent credits include Ledisi’s The Crown (2025), Michael Franti’s Welcome to the Family (2025), and JY Park’s Gatsby (2025), along with her choral arrangement for I Will Survive in Tyler Perry’s Divorce in the Black (2024).

Sara’s voice has graced stages worldwide. She has performed alongside and supported a luminous roster of artists: Rahsaan Patterson, Michael Franti, Jennifer Holliday, Dave Hollister, N’Dambi, and more.

Beyond performance, she is a sought-after coach and mentor, curating workshops such as The Artistry of the BGV, where she cultivates the next generation of voices. Students and peers alike describe her as a guide who balances structure with freedom, unlocking authenticity in every singer she touches.

Sara is more than a vocalist. She is an arranger of emotions, a director of moments, and a storyteller whose harmonies carry both history and possibility. With every note, she reminds us that the voice is not just sound — it is soul.
