Sarah Darling will release her fifth studio album Wonderland on 7th June 2019.
To mark the announcement, Darling has released new track Fire. She wrote the song with Pete Hammerton (Kylie Minogue, The Shires, James Morrison) and Shelly Poole (Ward Thomas, The Wandering Hearts, Red Sky July). Take a listen to it below:
“Making Wonderland has turned out to be one of the greatest musical adventures I’ve ever had,” Darling explains, “Every song tells my story, and imprints this very special time in my life; when I got to create a country album in the UK! Wonderland represents the greatest road trip of my life. Each song is a stop on the map, and important lessons along the way.”
Darling has worked with a wide range of writers and producers from the UK and the US on Wonderland.
“I’ve been in England for most of the year co-writing and working with producers. On this project, it’s really about new friends and new ideas. I literally would walk into a co-writing session, and had never met the person before. It’s so incredibly exciting to be finishing up the album, and to say I’ve recorded this in a different country. It’s a true reflection of me, and the current ride I’m on. Not to mention, I have new friends and memories for life. Music is about the connection. I’m so proud to share this trans-Atlantic collaboration. It’s the greatest adventure of my life to date!”
