Sarah Morris - Growing up in a house where Brenda Lee, Johnny Mathis, and Bing Crosby crooned through the family speakers all season long, Sarah comes by her deep love for Christmas songs honestly. In her 16th year of Holiday Shows, Sarah is also celebrating putting that love for holiday music into a new little album. ‘merry little, light’ is a cozy, intimate recording of 4 classics and one original tune, meant to encourage cuddling under blankets, or contemplation underneath the glittering winter stars. 2018 Kerrville New Folk Winner; twice-named Midwest Country Music Organization’s Songwriter of the Year, Sarah Morris aims to document the glorious details of our messy, magical lives. Called a “country-leaning Norah Jones” (Star Tribune), Morris wields a keen eye and a captivating voice; offering poignant, relatable songs with timeless melodies. https://sarahmorrismusic.com/about/
