If you follow this blog with any regularity, you'll note that I've been raving about Taunton's own Sarah Borges. And why the hell not?She's no local phenom. Her debut CD "Silver City" was one of the hottest Americana CDs in the first half of 2005. Not bad for a 26-year-0ld alternative country debutante.
She blew off the rafters at the Narrows earlier this year, and this Saturday she'll try it again (as a solo performer) as she opens for rockabilly and country legend Rosie Flores. We hope her friends and family will once again come to the Narrows to support her. She deserves it!!
Later on this year, she'll be playing with Dave Alvin at Chicago's Old Town School of Folk Music, a place that helped launch the careers of our buddy Roger McGuinn, John Prine and the late Steve Goodman (he's the guy who wrote "City of New Orleans," with which Arlo Guthrie had a hit).
But most important, her CD "Silver City" is simply one of the best damn CDs I've heard in a very long time. It rocks, it rolls, it twangs, it thumps and it bangs! It "floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee."
Saturday night is going to be a BIG show, with Sarah and Rosie. Tickets are still available. Check out www.ncfta.org for more information.
