Do you know...

that on the hillside next to what now is your home there's a thick blanket of white flowers growing? The scent of them fills the whole place and I recall the days we spent growing up in the forest near our home. You building your huts up in the tops of trees and me digging for old ceramics in the cold spring soil. When we grew up we were both going to be archaeologists.
I wonder what you know now or if there's no more to know where you are. It's spring where I am and you're missing.

The importance of movement

22nd of April - U.S release date




Spring followed me from Paris to Berlin. It seems we arrived at the exact same time. It's all so pretty and I'm perplexed as to why I can never seem to remember what spring is like when it finally arrives. It's like being born again and experiencing it for the first time every year.


Tomorrow my album will finally see the light of day in the U.S. and I'm really happy about it. Soon I'll be coming too so hoping to see you at the following places:


6 May - Johnny Brenda's - Philadelphia, PA
7 May - Joe's Pub - New York, NY
8 May - Bowery Ballroom - New York, NY
9 May - Middle East - Boston, MA
10 May - Lambi - Montreal, Quebec
11 May - Mod Club - Toronto, Ontario
12 May - Schubas - Chicago, IL
14 May - Red Room - Vancouver, British Columbia
15 May - Triple Door, Seattle, WA
16 May - Dough Fir - Portland, OR
18 May - Bimbo's - San Fransisco, CA
19 May - El Rey Theatre - Los Angeles, CA

Glory to the world and Danish television

Back from Paris and the sun. Thank you all who came to the show at the Centre Culturel Suédois! It was sweet and I hope to bring my band with me next time. Hopefully soon.
Speaking of my band; we performed the song 'Glory to the World' on the Danish TV show 'Den 11 time' when visiting Copenhagen the other day. Watch it here.

That kind of day

I spent the day strolling the streets of Paris. It's so strange with this city, everytime I arrive here I feel a little bit out of place, foreign, but then after taking a few steps down a street it's like I've never left in the first place. I know the streets like sleepwalking.
And they say today was the first real day of spring here too. The sun's been shining like crazy. It does things to me and to everyone I guess. For me, it's like heaven to my exhausted and confused mind. I needed this day so bad.
Tomorrow I'll be performing solo at the Centre Culturel Suédois. See you!

Arty on Space


I did this thing with my song 'Into the Sunshine' for the great Swedish TV show Arty on the theme Space. Here's a link to the whole show.



I like your smile
And your fingertips
I like the way that you move your lips
I like the cool way you look at me,
Everything about you is bringing me misery

Change of plans


Sometimes fate throws you off course even though I really wouldn't blame fate for the cause of Lykke Li's current state(there's different powers involved here...). Due to vocal problems she's had to cancel the rest of our Scandinavian tour. I'm very sad about it and for her especially but I've decided to go on and do the rest of the shows on my own. So I do hope to see you tomorrow night in Copenhagen and on the other shows following in Sweden.
The brilliant Andreas Söderlund known as ASS will most hopefully join me in Uppsala on the 9th of April, Stockholm on the 10th and Lund on the 11th and the totally wonderful Wildbirds and Peacedrums will join me in Gothenburg on the 12th as planned.

Really looking forward to seeing you all!
with love,
Sarah

On a tour

Tomorrow is the first day of my and Lykke Li's tour around Scandinavia. I'm looking forward to it. I'm hoping to get time off to write something about my experiences. Trondheim's tomorrow.

Bye for now
