A warm welcome back to Julie and Sahra. We enjoyed their artistry last June 23 and are ready to hear more. Julie grew up singing in church and feels most at home in this setting. She moved to Pacific Grove from Hawaii with her young family in 2005 and has made a name for herself has singing jazz and inspirational music all over the Monterey Peninsula and abroad.
Sahra has been writing music her entire life. Her songs have been placed in movies and documentaries and she especially enjoys writing for specific causes. For instance, the song “My Wish For You” was written for a documentary about a Mongolian Orphanage that rescued children that were living in sewers.
She writes in various styles of music, including “progressive spirituals” for the church focusing on themes of love, compassion and equality.
Julie and Sahra have been close friends for over a dozen years and love performing together. We are so fortunate to have them together again at CitF.
