Sara Skinner

WOW! Amazing voice that just embraces your soul. Truly the work of an angel. That is how I can describe this next artist. I have to tell you about an unbelievable new artist that I am looking forward to seeing at NAMM at the Lampifier Microphone booth next week. That incredible voice belongs to beautiful and talented, Sara Skinner.

I first heard about Sara and was asked to check out one of her cover songs that she does on her Youtube channel. She actually sings live on her videos but also has her original work. I didn’t get the chance to watch the covers, then I got asked to watch her video for her release of her original song, “Break”. After the first second of hearing her voice, I was just captivated. She has such a smooth voice with mysterious edges that just leave you longing for more. It is funny since she posts her cover songs in hopes of getting viewers to listen to her originals. For me, after watching “Break”, I sat and watched a dozen or so of her covers just to see if that angelic voice flows through all her music. And guess what, it does. This is one talented artist and I really look forward to hearing more from her.

Here is the video for her song, “Break” that she wrote.

Just as incredible as her vocal talent are her lyrics and music. Sara wrote “Break” which is about her experience of being bullied. Here are the lyrics:

Break written by Sara Skinner

I’m surrounded by liars listening to me like they understand

Why when I turn around are you laughing at me and everything I am?

Everybody is hurting inside but everyone’s too busy to see

And all she’s worried about is bringing me down in her mind,

not concerned with me

This world’s wide open,
but I know that nobody’s there
My heart is broken,
But you what, nobody cares

I am gonna break without you
My heart’s gonna break
I cannot take this without you
My heart’s gonna break

I know you’re tired of the looks people give in a crowd
they’ve chained me up in these thoughts and I can’t break out
I can’t even get by feeling decent inside
confidence is a sin to them I can’t hide
No I’m not gonna hide, anymore.

This world’s wide open,
but I know that nobody’s there
My heart is broken,
But you what, nobody cares
CHORUS
I am gonna break without you
My heart’s gonna break
I cannot take this without you
My heart’s gonna break
