NB: Saralyn’s sound was softer on the recording than it sounded when we spoke, so there are subtitles on this full-length interview. If you'd rather watch this with subtitles, you can find the full interview on YouTube.

From the time she started releasing songs in 2023, it was clear Saralyn was an artist with a distinctive sound and point of view, and that she had a lineage in country music and cared about offering songs that don’t shy away from emotion, such as ‘White Butterfly’ and ‘I Hope That You’ll Remember’. She also likes a driving beat, as on songs such as ‘Cowgirl Blues, which is one of five tracks on her debut EP, Goldline.

The title track is an origin story, of sorts, and a moving one at that. We talk about that in this new interview, in which Saralyn delves into her artistry and the stories that matter to her. There are songs about the love that sustains her and the dreams that drive her. As ever when we have chatted, Saralyn is clearly passionate about music, which has been in her life almost from birth. Even though being an independent artist is hard work – especially given she is the mother of two young children – she loves all the parts of it.

Saralyn’s music will appeal to people who love a contemporary country sound that is created along traditional lines, with storytelling that connects to the hearts of listeners and strong vocals that reinforce that connection because we can hear her own heart in each song.

She has several shows coming up, both of her original material and her Lainey Wilson cover show, Trailblazer – catch the last show of the current Trailblazer tour this Saturday at The Beer Shed in Sydney.
