Best known for her powerful voice and show-stopping performances, Canadian born and raised, McClurg is a bursting combination of true talent and a little mystery that keeps you coming back for more.
Raised on Dylan, Lightfoot, and top 40 radio; Sarah was gifted with an undeniable love for music even before she could even speak.

McClurg’s steely determination to sing coupled with her dynamic personality and love of the stage has allowed her to sing, write, perform and compete throughout Canada and the United States.

2009 brought McClurg to Nashville, Tennessee and producer to meet Danny White of renowned 16 Ton Studios on famed Music-Row.
After collaborating on what was to be just a “single,” the two decided a full-album was the only way to go and so ensued “Tennessee Rain”, an album of heartfelt, sincere country songs by a seasoned and confident artist.

The title track “Tennessee Rain” an up-tempo, vocally driven tune about lovers against all odds “washing away the pain tonight in the Tennessee rain” has you singing along to the hook before the song is even over.

Featuring stellar performances from some of Nashville's finest pickers and players, McClurg’s debut album is set to redefine contemporary country music. Welcome the new Nashville sound with great lyrics, beautiful melodies and plenty of good
