Singer/Songwriter Sarabeth Tucek is the very definition of understated. Her voice is quiet, but still has the power to cut right through you – as anyone who has heard her debut single ‘Something For You’ will testify. Sarabeth hails from New York and has recently completed her debut album. Over two weeks in 2006, she entered the studio with Ethan Johns (Kings Of Leon, Ray LaMontagne) and Luther Russell (Richmond Fontaine, Fernando) to record the 11 tracks that make up her eponymous debut and from the bitter-sweet and sparse ‘Something For You’ to the heartbreaking, string-laden closer ‘Home’ it is a masterpiece. Sarabeth was born in Miami, but it was while growing up in Manhattan that she fell in love with her mum’s favourite music such as Cat Stevens and Simon & Garfunkel. She went on to discover the likes of Neil Young, The Velvet Underground, Joy Division, My Bloody Valentine and Elliott Smith for herself. However, more than any other, she worships Bob Dylan.
