Listen to Sarah Jarosz

Polaroid Lovers, the seventh album from four-time GRAMMY winner Sarah Jarosz, finds the highly decorated songwriter at the apex of change. From leaving New York for Nashville to opening herself up to collaborators for the first time, the creative reorganization of her writing process evolved to include a much richer and more electric sound.  

Polaroid Lovers finds her reflecting on past loves, childhood dreams, the places she lived in, and all the versions of herself that she’s been. She tapped guitarist Rob McNelley (Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood), Tom Bukovac (Tom Petty, Vince Gill) on guitar and organ, her husband, bassist Jeff Picker (Nickel Creek), and drummer Fred Eltringham (Sheryl Crow, Lucinda Williams) for the album recording.  

Jarosz released her debut album at the age of 18 and was immediately nominated for her first GRAMMY. Raised in Texas, she began playing mandolin at age 10 and soon after guitar and banjo. To date, she has released six studio albums, has netted ten GRAMMY nominations and four wins. In 2018, she joined Sara Watkins of Nickel Creek and Aoife O’Donovan to form the supergroup, I’m With Her. The group released their debut album See You Around and won duo/group of the year at the Americana Awards and a GRAMMY for Best American Roots song for “Call My Name.”
