According to the Slow Songfacts, Sarah spent the early years of her life in Pakistan,having been born in Islamabad on 3rd June 1979, where her father was the chief-engineer of the enormous Tarbela Dam, 30 miles to the northwest of Islamabad. The youngest of seven children, living in an expat colony without TV or newspapers, Rumer and her family would often sing and write songs together. Her brother Rob gave Rumer her first guitar; which she taught herself to play, and on which, years later, she wrote all the songs on her debut album, Seasons of My Soul.
The singer/songwriter spent her teenage years in Carlisle at Newman School before leaving at 16 to pursue her ambition. It has been a hard slog but years later she is finally hitting the big time and gradually becoming a household name. She now hopes her success will inspire other young people to follow their dreams.
Having had her single listed ahead of its release on both Radio 2 and Magic FM, she is also preparing to support Jools Holland on his UK tour this autumn – the finale being a show at the Albert Hall.
She also has a celebrity fan in the form of easy listening legend Burt Bacharach, who invited her to sing for him when she visited California.

Brooke
You make me want to sing about love
Every time I raise my head
You make me want to tell the whole world
What I've found is good
Then they say
Slow
Slow this right down
Don't burn it out
Don't let it show
Slow
Oh, but my heart is racing
To hold your gaze and
Let it go
My love, my love, my love
Killin' time is easy when you're here
Chris Harris
Voice of an angel, probably the purest voice I’ve heard personally since Karen Carpenter. Big shoes to fill but she’s certainly got the tools for the job.

Look up Front Row Seat to Earth, from Weyes Blood (Natalie Mering) for another voice similar to KC.
Eric
took the words right out of my mouth
Susan Leatherbarrow
As you like Rumer have a listen to Harriet, another English vocalist, similar to KC. More than one Harriet though, make sure you click on right one!!!

I can feel Karen, Dusty and a tiny drop of Sade. Whatever the combination, her voice is priceless.
Jay Cris
This track is touching each and every cell of my body, making them shiver and taking them to a better place. So soothing!
Deborah Oliver
Right on ♡
