Sarah Alden & Kyle Sanna

Hailing from Brooklyn New York, Sarah Alden's impressionistic songwriting weaves richly textured soundscapes of synths and strings into a captivating journey of poetic storytelling. Drawing both from her roots in American fiddle music and her interest in atmospheric electronica, she has garnered favorable comparisons to Andrew Bird and Bjork. Her collaboration with producer Kyle Sanna has produced "Up to the Sky", a collection of original songs amplifying a world of visceral moments reflecting the intersection of consciousness and the natural world.

Moments are periods of attunement to the now as it moves through time. A moment is the hourglass of shared experience between one’s awareness and one’s environment, often set against an emotional landscape.

Interacting with nature is to be continually reminded of the many systems operating beyond our control. There is no way to pause or replay nature’s processes. When the clouds open, when the fish jumps, when thunder wakes us, we have the choice to pay attention. These moments do not demand our attention, but in giving our attention they dissolve the boundaries between our selves and our environment.
