Acoustic Events Live - SARAH McQUAID
Advertisement
A singer-songwriter in a tradition that spans cultures and genres with peerless musicianship.
Sarah McQuaid’s lush, chocolatey voice combines with her engaging personality and “brilliant musicianship” (fRoots) on acoustic and electric guitars, keyboards and (occasionally) drum to create a truly immersive experience.
Born in Spain, raised in Chicago, holding dual Irish and American citizenship and now settled in rural England, she brings the eclecticism of her background to her “captivating, unorthodox songwriting” (PopMatters) and choice of material, spanning genres and defying categorisation.
In the words of one audience member: “Sarah is a truly impressive artist who takes you on a journey through storytelling, blending a variety of musical genres and instruments with ease and creativity. Her lyrics are down-to-earth yet incredibly captivating. Attending her concert feels like diving into a book of short stories — some resonate deeply, some spark your imagination, others make you pause and reflect, and a few bring tears or spontaneous laughter. Sarah’s connection with the audience is both gentle and profound. You don’t just watch a performance — you become part of it, part of the story she’s telling. … To anyone considering seeing her live: go. It’s worth every second. You’ll leave with your heart full and your soul touched — guaranteed.”

Brackenfield Village Hall
Small, but beautifully formed! A gorgeous stone building in a quiet village, this is a seated, friendly, listening concert spread over 2 sets, with 15 minute interval - we don't have a bar, but soft drinks will be available for purchase, and you're very welcome to bring your own alcohol (and take away the empties...). The venue is accessible, with parking along the roadside (please don't park on the village green - they're very proud of it!).

TICKET PRICE : £15 (+ £1 Booking Fee)
DOORS : 7pm
START TIME : 7.30pm
