Her voice smoky and warm, she sings of the things that fill her head: dreams, the sea and sky and trees, belonging and loneliness and love, longing and forgetting and remembering.
Her songs are haunted by the unexpected fusion of the classically influenced piano, wistful strings, strange harmonies, and pop bent.
She fell in love with music at exactly the moment her seven-year-old fingers touched the keys of her family’s tired and old spinet piano, and was inspired by composers such as Chopin, Scarlatti, Beethoven, Soler, Schumann, and Bach, and their passion and ability to connect with their audience generation after generation. Performing at countless recitals and competitions, she became a fine classical pianist. From an early age, Jackson-Holman was also in love with reading, beautiful words, good literature, metaphors, and poetry. And ever since she could speak, she loved to sing. In the March of 2008, she began to reconcile her love of piano, poetry, singing, and pop music, and became fascinated with this medium of communication that so happily married her favorite passions.

River Queen
Sara Jackson-Holman Lyrics
Take me with you
When you go to the depths of your despair
Honey I will be
Be the river that takes you there
Take it down to nothing
Lay it all out for me
Take your chances on me
Cause I am your river queen
I could be the one that'll make you happy
I could be the one to show you what life could be
Oh, I could be the one
I could be your girl when you're down and broken
Drag you out the door when you're starting something
Oh, I could be the one
Wake you softly
Take your hand in the cover of the night
Honey I will be
Be your love, your protector and your guide
Feel my breath in your lungs
Never let go of me
I'll take you thru the currents
Cause I am your river queen
I am not afraid to love you
When you go to the depths of your despair
Honey I will be
Be the river that takes you there
Take it down to nothing
Lay it all out for me
Take your chances on me
Cause I am your river queen
I could be the one to show you what life could be
Oh, I could be the one
I could be your girl when you're down and broken
Drag you out the door when you're starting something
Oh, I could be the one
Wake you softly
Take your hand in the cover of the night
Honey I will be
Be your love, your protector and your guide
Feel my breath in your lungs
Never let go of me
I'll take you thru the currents
Cause I am your river queen
I am not afraid to love you
