Sarah Klang

Sarah Klang returns with “Beautiful Woman,” first single from her upcoming full-length album produced by Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter and composer Eric D. Johnson (Fruit Bats, Bonny Light Horseman). Sarah’s stream-of-consciousness storytelling is on full display on “Beautiful Woman,” which centers on a young Klang as she becomes aware of her own sexuality. What starts joyful is quickly dimmed by struggles with body image and society’s definition of “beautiful.” She shares: "'Beautiful Woman' takes place in my teenage bedroom and in my stupid little teenage head, as I discover my sexuality, try to be thin like Paris Hilton, and grow up believing that becoming a beautiful woman is the great meaning of life.” Klang has always had a talent for autobiographical songwriting, like on her acclaimed debut Love in The Milky Way (2018), which won Best Album at the Swedish Grammis awards. It continued on Creamy Blue (2019), her second album that earned two nominations at the Grammis awards. While her sound had previously touched upon a mix of influences (‘60 and ‘70s pop, Americana, an undercurrent of country), VIRGO (2021) broadened her scope to include elements of ‘80s synth-pop . Klang's latest album, Mercedes (2023), was inspired by her experience becoming a first time mother to her daughter, for whom the album is named. It earned Sarah yet another Grammis nomination and received praise from Wonderland, The Line of Best Fit, and The Sunday Times.
