Sarah Borges and the Broken Singles

About Sarah Borges and the Broken Singles:

As the great thespian Patrick Swayze once said, "Nobody puts Baby in a corner." The same is true of Sarah Borges. On the basis of her critically-lauded early work, particularly Diamonds in the Dark (2007), some pundits decided they know exactly where the Boston-area rocker and her cohorts, the Broken Singles, belong in the musical spectrum. They were mistaken. Her 2009 release, The Stars Are Out, has stunned them with a more vibrant, far-reaching display of what Sarah Borges and the Broken Singles are all about. And yes, there will be dancing.

"We always want people to dance," enthuses Borges. "That's the best way to get a show going."

"There aren't many buzzed-over young rockers with Smokey Robinson and NRBQ tunes floating around their heads, but Sarah Borges covers both on her third LP... 'Stars' shows off Borges' friendly pop-rock attack and tosses in bits of twang, rockabilly and Fifties pop... thanks largely to Borges' warm, perky voice, Stars is tuneful and unhip in a hip kinda way."

"A modern-minded honky-tonker with a retro streak"
