Sarah Johnsone

Rising North East artist Sarah Johnsone’s alluring vocals may conjure the likes of Amy Winehouse with its loaded provocation and spacey vibe, but the Newcastle-based artist’s punchy sound has more in common with music makers Wet Leg, Siouxie and the Banshees and The Black Keys thanks to a defiantly angular alt. rock edge. Debuting as a solo artist, and gaining serious plaudits for wistful single Tonight – from Spotify's prestigious New Music Friday UK playlist to being featured on the soundtrack to Frank Berry’s seething drama movie, Aisha – Johnsone’s trajectory saw her partner with a full band and enter full-blown anthemic indie rock territory on second release Don’t Wanna Be Your Girl and perform at prestigious venues including Sage Gateshead and Ronnie Scott’s.
