~BILL BINKELMAN NEW AGE REPORTER

"Working with studio/keyboard wizard Rob Mullins, sultry singer/songwriter Sarah Ingraham's HUMAN sizzles, soars,and sashays from your speakers with an exotic mixture of world fusion, electronica, jazz and pop, featuring intelligent lyrics that manage to both entertain and enlighten without crossing over the line into preachy sermonizing. Whether pulsing with rhythmic energy on the opening title track, shuffling along on chillout beats, ethnic drums, and pulsing laser-zapping synths on "Free at Last," ramping it up on the frenetic to say the least- techno-paced "Hojayegi Balle" (Punjabi for "You'll go Ga Ga"), or slowing down on the blend of torch-song sexiness with world beat spiciness of "Romantic Fantasies," Ingraham and Mullins whisk the listener away through a mixture of captivating melodies, catchy beats, and the artists sensual vocals. Ingraham possesses a great voice and knows how to use it while producer/arranger/engineer Mullins pushes all the right buttons on the mixing board(not to mention his musical expertise). While there is no mistaking the world music influences(notably East Indian and Middle Eastern), HUMAN should appeal to more than just those who enjoy traveling through their music, as the CD is always accessible if not downright irresistible at times. Thumbs up from me!"

~SKOPE MAGAZINE JOSEPH A. ITALIANO

"If you like songs that have an intelligent and international flavor while still remaining catchy and pop oriented, I encourage you to check out the music of Sarah Ingraham. If this is the new direction of New Age music,sign me up!"

~EMME K EDITORE NEW AGE NEW SOUNDS SIVIA TURRIN VOL 186

"For years this American singer/songwriter has been creating a bridge between East and West with her hypnotic and fascinating voice. On her debut album HUMAN she fuses the sounds of different cultures while showing how they are all connected."

~RJ LANNAN NEW AGE REPORTER

"Fusion to the NTH degree...Sarah has traveled the world in search of music that she can grasp, understand and shape into a concept that has universal appeal."

~ADAM HARRINGTON WHISPERIN&HOLLERIN REVIEWS

"If Top-40 radio reflected the Internet's global community instead of being centered around American pop culture, the music would sound like that of Sarah Ingraham."

~KYRBY RAINE SHOTGUN REVIEWS

"Sarah Ingraham reminds me of Ofra Haza.. that ethereal, angelic sound...except that she is singing in a language that I do understand. Bolo Ta Ra Ra is good enough to be in a Bollywood picture and "Free at Last" utilizes a sultry R&B vocal with blissful Europop."

A voice and harpsichord major at UCSC, Sarah's fascination and passion for world music led her to Japan and India where she studied traditional instruments and genres. While in Japan, Sarah studied Japanese harp (Okoto) with SAWAKO FUKUHARA in Kyoto and became inspired by worldbeat and electronica music of Ofra Haza, Orb and Cocteau Twins. Eager to explore the musical traditions of India, Sarah stayed with a generations old family of singers and tabla players in Udaipur, India.

She studied ghazals and filmis with AZIZ KHAN JAIPURI and performed nightly in local venues such as Laxmi Vilas Hotel. Sarah continued performing Indian ghazals and filmi music for Indian, Pakistani and Afghani audiences in the United States and was subsequently recognized by the Indian music industry when she became a SEMIFINALIST on the hit music show SAREGAMA during its international taping in New York with HARIHARAN, ALLA MALLU MANI and USTAD AMJAD ALI KHAN as judges. Hosted by SONU NIGAM.

Sarah was the singer and cowriter of "REMEMBERING THE FUTURE" with virtuoso guitarist ANGEL ROMERO for his album "REMEMBERING THE FUTURE" on RCA VICTOR.

She sang an Indian style a capella intro for GRAMMY nominated jazz composer ROB MULLINS' "DANCE FOR THE NEW WORLD" on WARNER BROTHERS.

Explorations into the Asian underground led to the TOMMY AWARD winning multimedia performance "CONTINUUMS" with Jonathan Gage, in which she sang in Japanese and played koto.

Sarah's DEBUT CD "HUMAN" produced and cowritten by ROB MULLINS is a blend of EAST INDIAN, POP, JAZZ, DANCE, and R&B.

At home singing in many languages in a variety of musical genres Sarah sees music as a place for people to come together and discover cross cultural understanding as well as exploring our desire for romantic and divine love.
