Sara Jane is a singer songwriter from the beautiful state of Tasmania, recently moved to Melbourne, who doesn't go unnoticed. Her style is unique, individual and not something that is easily boxed or categorized into one particular genre. Instead Sara Jane has a real sense of diversity and spontaneity, with each song taking you on a new musical journey to the next. This variety stems from a broad range of musical influences such as old school sounds like Eva Cassidy, Ella Fitzgerald and Bob Marley and modern sounds like Regina Spektor, Lanie Lane and Missy Higgins.
With the support of her dynamic band, Sara Jane connects with her listeners through funky reggae style grooves that can get you moving in your seat as well as more intimate bluesy connections that are raw and honest. Through elements of blues, reggae, pop, and folk she captivates and immerses audiences of all ages and backgrounds as she takes you on story of all those things we can relate too; love, loss, life.

Sara Jane released her latest EP (Let's see) how this plays in July last year.
