Persevering through a period of personal struggle, Sarrenna emerged more resolute and equipped with an unflinching collection of tracks detailing her experience. Initially recorded as a stark yet stunning acoustic suite, the difficult subject matter was assuaged by the native East Tennessean's raspy vocals and supple guitarwork.
​
Now, reinforced with a full backing band and given lush studio treatment, these songs have been transformed from tempered heartbroken laments into empowered kiss-off anthems fortified with rich instrumentation and resonant harmonies. The already tuneful material is newly robust and exhibits noticeably more venom, which better complements the incisive wit inherent in the artist's confessional lyrics and more effectively amplifies the themes of emancipation, connectivity and healing located therein.
​
Finding both solace and inspiration in the works of luminous peers like Madi Diaz, Julia Jacklin and Laura Marling, Sarrenna has embarked upon the path toward self-actualization through the fabrication of her own dynamic music – a distinctive tapestry of genres and influences that recalls classic country, Americana and indie rock in equal measure. It is the burgeoning performer's stated goal to provide similar refuge for anyone who feels alone, dissociated or small in the presence of others.
​
Sarrenna, cofounder and former member of the Americana folk duo Guy Marshall (2011-2022), has performed regionally at notable events such as Bristol Rhythm N Roots, Whispering Beard Fest (IN), White Squirrel Fest (NC), and Rhythm N Blooms (TN). With new solo project, she has recently performed at venues including the Bluebird Cafe (Nashville), The Evening Muse (Charlotte), and the Dogwood Arts Festival (Knoxville), and will return this fall to play Bristol Rhythm N Roots with a full band.
