Sarah McLachlan has just announced new music!<\/p>\n
Her first album of new material in over a decade, and her tenth studio album – “Better Broken” comes out September 19th.<\/p>\n
The title track brings a “soul-searching reflection on the fortitude that comes from weathering life\u2019s constant storms \u2013 and furthers her legacy with a selection of songs that speak an uncompromising but radically illuminating truth about the state of the human condition.”<\/p>\n
Sarah McLachlan says – \u201cA lot of the lyrics on this record came from thinking about the world right now and asking, \u2018How do we move through this landscape? How do we keep our heads above water when it feels like so much is falling apart? I don\u2019t know if I have any answers, but channeling all that angst and uncertainty into the music has been so cathartic. I hope that this record provides people with some relief and release\u2014but in the end I just want them to take whatever they need from it, and make the songs part of their own story.\u201d<\/p>\n
Over the course of her three-decades-long career, Sarah McLachlan has won 3 GRAMMY Awards,\u00a012 JUNO Awards, and sold over 40 million albums worldwide.<\/p>\n
It was Sarah McLachlan who founded the groundbreaking all-female music festival Lilith Fair, featuring an A-list lineup for female alternative musicians of the moment, including Sheryl Crow, Jewel, The Indigo Girls, Lisa Loeb, Fiona Apple, Erykah Badu, Tracy Chapman, Natalie Merchant and more.<\/p>\n
She is also a philanthropist and the founder of Sarah McLachlan School of Music (SoM), a not-for-profit that provides music instruction and mentorship at no cost to children and youth facing barriers to access. SoM was founded in Vancouver in 2002 and it currently serves over 1,200 students a year with locations in Vancouver, New Westminster and Edmonton.\u00a0 Sarah personally covers the administrative costs so that every dollar raised goes directly to support the students.<\/p>\n
