Under 21 with Guardian

With Sara Swenson and her songs, you will find yourself in the company of a good friend - one who brings us in and reminds us of our shared humanity.

Known for her gentle nature and her beautifully haunting voice, she uses her stripped down live sets to protect the space where her voice and lyrics stir our souls. 

Her recorded works have also garnered attention with several TV placements.

Swenson's song “I Won't Let You Feel Alone” is featured in the 2023 Children's Mercy Hospital advertising campaign (Kansas City and surrounding region), and eleven of her songs were featured in the soundtrack to the 2023 national PBS series “Girl Unscripted”. 

Swenson’s other successes include songs featured on the prime time American drama “Private Practice” (ABC), period drama "Reign" (CW) and Canada's "Hello Goodbye" (CBC). She has performed opening sets for major artists such as Gregory Alan Isakov, Jakob Dylan, Katie Herzig, and the Lilith Fair (with McLachlan, Emmylou Harris, Ingrid Michaelson and others.) She’s been voted Singer-Songwriter of the Year twice in Kansas City and has toured in several major cities in the United States and the United Kingdom. 

In addition to three singles released in 2021, her previous projects include a full-length record "Runway Lights" (2014) and an EP with her band, The Pearl Snaps, released in November 2011 (“Never Left My Mind.”) Her other two full-length projects, “All Things Big and Small” (2010) and “Sara Swenson” (2008), have been widely loved and critically acclaimed.
