Official Artist Channel for Singer-Songwriter Sara Thomsen
“Thomsen’s soulful voice, poetic lyrics and unforgettable melodies cut through to the heart and the soul of human experience,” proclaims the Minnesota Women’s Press. With a voice rich as the best mid-west soil, Sara's songs carry you inward and outward—in, to the particulars of your own life, and out—into the shared humanity of us all.
In addition to her solo work, Sara is a weaver of song and community singing. To be with Sara is to want to sing. Increasing wonder and awareness, deepening connection, and widening social engagement through song is at the heart of her work. Sara's ability to get people singing magically transforms gatherings into communities empowered with possibility.
Thomsen's home base is the Lake Superior watershed south of the Twin Ports of Duluth, MN and Superior, WI. Sara lives there with her wife Paula Pedersen, their dog, Athena, a flock of chickens and a hive of honeybees.
