Sarah Camille’s musical expression and lyrics are full of contrasts: playfulness, rhythm, and flow—but also seriousness and melancholy. Musically, she moves between jazz, the folk song tradition, and folk music, all tied together by her soft and intimate vocals. She delivers her lyrics in Norwegian, French, and Creole, and on stage she is accompanied by a group of talented musicians who navigate a boundless musical landscape.

Sarah was born in Paris and grew up in Oslo—with roots in Martinique on her mother’s side and Stavanger on her father’s side. Artistically, too, Sarah constantly moves freely between many worlds: In 2011, she became the Norwegian slam poetry champion, and she has also contributed as a storyteller, lyricist, and playwright to many performing arts projects and theater productions. Gradually, music came to play a major role in Sarah’s work, and in 2017 she made her debut as a recording artist with the album *Sol*. In 2020, she won the Spellemann Prize in the Children’s Music category for her second album, *Spor av dråper og røde nebb*. With the albums “Vingeslag” (2021) and “våkner i en annen dag” (2023), she has now released four albums.
