This week on Mulligan Stew, Terry David Mulligan is excited to interview Grammy and Juno Award winning artist Sarah McLachlan.
I had the pleasure of doing the first national interview with Sarah for MuchWest many years ago. I asked her what she wanted to do now that she had moved from one coast to another and she said “I want to write songs and sing them and have people hear my music” We talk about that on Saturdays Stew.
Also, I was happily surprised to hear Sarah reference the World Vision trip we took together to Cambodia and Thailand. She said performing for kids on the streets made her realize how powerful music could be for children who don’t have any access to it and thus was born the idea of her Foundation The Sarah McLachlan School of Music.
I treasure each time we get together and I hope you do as well.
Sarah is headlining the 2016 Vancouver Jazz Festival June 27th The QE Theatre in Vancouver. Then she’s off to tour with Josh Groban.
Sarah’s latest release is the sublime Shine On.. We’ll also talk about her next LP.
With over 25 years in the recording industry, Sarah McLachlan is a multi-platinum singer/songwriter best known for her intimate vocals and engaging lyrics. Canadian-born, this Grammy and Juno Award winning artist has sold over 40 million albums. She is the recipient of numerous awards including the Order of Canada and the Governor General’s Performing Arts Award for Lifetime Achievement. Her philanthropic efforts extend to The Sarah McLachlan School of Music—a non-profit music education program for at-risk and underserved youth. Sarah’s latest album Shine On celebrates the human ability to grow from our experiences, thrive and shine on.
