Performing

Sarah spent many years recording and touring with Irish singing group Anúna. She loves singing at weddings and feels priviledged to be able to add some of her magic to such an important day in a couple’s lives. Her biggest highlights to date include singing solo with Anuna on BBC’s Songs of Praise, singing in the House of Commons chapel in London, and at the wedding of Irish rugby captain Brian O’Driscoll and actor Amy Huberman in Co. Leitrim. Sarah is a previous winner of Church Singer of the Year at the Weddings Online.ie wedding industry awards. 

She toured with the grammy award winning harper Janet Harbison and The Irish Harp Orchestra all over Germany as their principal female soloist. She is a member of Limerick Chamber Choir and performed with the Path of Miracles choir for their debut concerts around Ireland and in Tallinn, Estonia.

Teaching

In 2014 Sarah travelled to London to study a method for teaching music to young children called Colourstrings, and was hooked!  In the same year she started her own business called Little Stars Music where she teaches group music classes to children from 1-6 years of age.  She also runs Primary School music workshops and Music and Movement classes all over County Limerick.  

Sarah is an experienced Vocal Coach for many years and teaches from her home in
