Sarah Reynolds is an LA-based indie singer-songwriter and a classically trained vocalist. When classical music opportunities began to dwindle during the pandemic, she rediscovered herself in the pop rock genre that first piqued her interest in singing and writing.  An interpreter of other artists’ compositions for most of her career, Reynolds’ turn to singer-songwriter was both natural and necessary. Adolescent is her debut EP which showcases commanding vocals, infectious melodies, incisive lyrics, and vulnerable storytelling. Sometimes fiery, other times playful, Adolescent tackles subjects ranging from girl bullies to the patriarchy to the farce of looking for closure after a break-up. These mercurial songs are fun, a little edgy, and will make you want to move.

Adolescent was produced by Jesse Berent and revels in detailed, creative pop production reminiscent of Jon Brion’s collaborations with Fiona Apple, Elliot Smith and Sean Lennon. Lush arrangements accompany Reynolds’ equally powerful and emotive vocal performance. Light and dark moods co-exist sonically and lyrically while Reynolds’ unique voice delivers an array of colors. Hints of influences like Fiona Apple, Tori Amos, Liz Phair and 90s-era alternative music aesthetics from Reynolds’ own adolescence are woven into the character of this fresh debut.
