Sara Donaldson

At age seven, Sara started composing. At age 11, she picked up the cello. At age 15, she graduated the Suzuki Cello Method, and then picked up the guitar.

Her elementary, middle and high school years were filled not only with musical activities, but also with art and photography. College, however, was a different story. Sara’s involvement with university organizations in college left little time for the arts. She quit the elite university chorale to pursue her student government “ambitions,” and set down her bow to make time for executive board meetings. There was a point where she looked at her expensive cello – it was sitting in the corner collecting dust – and contemplated selling it.

…Thankfully, that spring semester, Sara dropped pre-med, switched her major to ADPR, picked up a course in painting, and started classical guitar lessons. She also picked up her musical pen and began composing again. This time, including lyrics. (She had a lot to say.)

Today, Sara Donaldson is a singer, studio musician, photographer, writer, painter and yoga instructor in the Dallas / Fort Worth area, with a master's in environmental science and B.S. in public relations and neuroscience from Texas Christian University.

Sara’s voice is ethereal, soothing and expressive. Her songs have bold sparseness, yet musical depth. Honest, heartfelt lyrics reveal an openness about her…a vulnerability her fans can appreciate.
