About
Sarah Gillespie is a British-American singer-songwriter, poet and producer known for her blend of poetic lyrics with folk, blues, and jazz influences. She has released five albums, which have received critical acclaimn and she has collaborated with prominent jazz musicians including Chris Montague, Mercury Prize-nominated Kit Downes, Laura Jurd, James Maddren, and Ruth Goller. Gillespie's style is often compared to that of Bob Dylan and Tom Waits. Her work extends into arts education and advocacy: she founded the Create Now Academy in 2020 to mentor women in songwriting and creativity, and in 2025 launched the non-profit initiative "She Writes Songs", with events in the United States and the United Kingdom.
Her debut poetry collection, Queen Ithaca Blues, was published by Albion Beatnik Press.
