‘Holes’
Sara’s Debut full-length Album
Acoustic Indie Pop
released December 11, 2020
“Jelley is a dazzler with a powerful voice and a strong stage presence” -Barry Wurst, MauiTime
After beginning the road to recovery from codependency, Sara Jelley’s original soulful indie folk-pop songs began to express the theme of self-acceptance as a means to heal and grow. Her songs are the equivalent of sneaking vegetables into comfort food- a mental tonic inside incredible emotional beauty.
Some have said about her music, “Wait a minute... there’s therapy in here!” Sara writes often about codependency and fully feeling her feelings, as well as her journeys with anxiety and complex trauma. She believes that emotional transparency and self-acceptance can transform a life and unite all of us.
Sara is a heart-opening, vulnerable and soulful vocalist, and takes her audiences on an emotional mini vacation. She uses her musical theater experience, her pure voice and nourishing charm to entice the listener into her honest, intentionally written songs.
Sara has performed in front of 20,000+ people, and at such venues as the Maui Arts and Cultural Center, the Historic Iao Theater, ProArts Playhouse, and private events. She is a mind/body/spirit focused vocal coach living on Maui with her partner Spencer and loves to connect with people at a soul level.
