SARAH KLANG
NEW ALBUM BEAUTIFUL WOMAN OUT NOW
LIVE DATE IN LONDON AT METRONOME ON 29TH APRIL 2025
“Sarah Klang’s ‘Beautiful Woman’ Is Stunning” – Associated Press
“’Beautiful Woman’ boasts bold and brash moments that feel like Adele covering The SteelDrivers alongside tender story songs that could have almost been pulled from the catalogs of country queens this side of the Atlantic like Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton.” – The Bluegrass Situation
“Sarah Klang has built a career off of grand pop confessionals, crafting a fluid style that has touched on folk, Americana, and more recently, glassy and euphoric synth pop.” – Under The Radar
“Klang’s emotionality is overwhelming. She has an exceptional talent for finding the universal within the personal, which makes the experience of listening to her feel so intimate to one’s own strife.” – Paste
“Some of the best music of her career so far.” – The Line of Best Fit
“Sarah is a generational talent. She writes lyrics with such directness and honesty. She writes albums like chapters in a book. She writes about being sad and contrite and satisfied and confused better than most. I loved making this album, and I love listening to it. Super proud.” – Eric D. Johnson (Fruit Bats)
Today, Sarah Klang releases her anticipated full-length album, Beautiful Woman. Produced by Eric D. Johnson (Fruit Bats, Bonny Light Horseman), Beautiful Woman sees Sarah use her own lived experiences to unpack the very essence of what it means to be a woman today. Listen to Beautiful Woman HERE.
Sarah shares, “Ultimately, Beautiful Woman is a celebration of womanhood and girlhood. It doesn’t really have a lot of love songs; it’s not focussed on a specific guy. This is an album about the awkwardness of being a child, a teenager and about understanding your relationship with your body and self in a patriarchal world.”
Spanning childhood to the tumultuous teenage years and into young adult life, its topics wanting to fit in (“Other Girls”), revisiting painful memories from childhood (“Childhood”), needing love but worrying about the co-dependency that comes with it (“Last Forever”), and issues of body confidence as adulthood approaches (“Beautiful Woman”). It’s a fresh, but equally comforting set of deeply personal, introspective tracks from an artist for whom such reflection comes naturally.
Beautiful Woman is also the product of a new creative process for Sarah, who switched her previous preference for home recordings by heading to Los Angeles, where her “Go To The Sun” co-writers, the aforementioned Grammy-nominated producer Eric D. Johnson and her regular collaborator / co-producer Theodor Stocks led sessions which focused on live performances with the help of top tier musicians such as drummer Josh Adams (Cat Power, Beck) and bassist Josh Mease (The Weeknd, Fruit Bats). The process was completed with similarly highly accomplished contributions, with mixing by Jarvis Taveniere (King Gizzard, Avalanches) and mastering by Heba Kabry (Big Thief, Björk, Future Islands).
Sarah Klang has always had a talent for autobiographical songwriting, like on her acclaimed debut ‘Love in The Milky Way’ (2018), which won Best Album at the Swedish Grammis awards. It continued on ‘Creamy Blue’ (2019), which earned two more Grammis nominations as well as a nod for European Album Of The Year at the IMPALA Awards. While her sound had previously touched upon ‘60 and ‘70s pop, Americana, and an undercurrent of country, 2021’s acclaimed ‘VIRGO’ added elements of ‘80s synth-pop to the mix and led to a second Grammis, this time for Best Alternative Pop. In 2023, Sarah signed to Nettwerk and released ‘Mercedes’, which earned yet another Grammis nomination (Best Pop Album of the Year) as well as widespread international praise.
Sarah Klang will follow the release of the Beautiful Woman album by heading out on a European headline tour, followed by U.S. dates at SXSW and in Los Angeles on March 17 at the Moroccan Lounge.
