"Sarah is one of the hardest working songwriters I know. Her songs are commercial and competitive."
Monti Olson, Executive Vice President, BMG - The New Music Company

"Sarah Nagourney is amazing. As a songwriter she is caring and sharing in all aspects of her craft. I have worked w/ her for 7 years now and to this day she still has the same fire inside of her!

"Sarah's ability to repeatedly create compelling, memorable, hit songs in various genres is a refreshing and rare quality. Her songs never disappoint, usually inspire, and feel familiar from the first listen."
Laura Becker, former 2K Sounds/EMI Music

A great songwriter is not simply someone who can invent an eternal melody or hookline, create an infectious groove or weave a story. A great songwriter understands the individual instrument that will convey that song, how to stimulate the inflections that make a voice unique and draw upon the nuances of the singer’s personality.
Neville Farmer, writer for Billboard, The New York Times, and more

Sarah is fast becoming my first call when I need a song for a movie. Her inherent ability to provide exactly the right 'flavor' knocks me out each and every time. She is a fantastic songwriter and it is a pleasure promoting her work in the film industry."
Nicola Fletcher, Music Supervisor - Best Laid Plans, Bridget Jones's Diary

"Eloquent Beautiful and dangerous- the songs of an angel with a dirty mind."
Robin Batteau, Singer-Songwriter, Producer

"In A&R I screened songs for most of MCA's major projects and Sarah's music was always fresh, never predictable or formulaic. Her CD was always at the top of my pile."
Renee White, Former A&R, Vanguard/Sugar Hill Records

"I've spent my entire career working with songwriters and it's rare to come across a true pro like Sarah. When we played her song 'Permanent' in front of a room full of 1,000 people at TAXI's annual convention, the place exploded into wild applause at the end. The last song that happened to went to number 1."
Doug Minnick, Former director of TAXI

"Sarah's mellifluent vocals, coupled with her songwriting brilliance, make for a very potent mix."
Martin Ditcham, Writer, Drummer, Percussionist (Sade, Everything But the Girl, Rolling Stones)

"Sarah as a songwriter brings so much to not only her own music, but in collaboration with others. She motivates everyone she writes with to go to where the deepest emotion and intention of the song can be fully realized together as a team. I always look forward to opportunities to write with Sarah. She creatively comes from such an inspired place, whether it be comes from personal experience or mirroring back life through her lyric. If you are a veteran songwriter, or just developing your craft, she makes a wonderful collaborator. I especially suggest new developing writers work with Sarah. You will learn so much and she will help you discover and further expand your voice as a writer."
Jeff Bova, Grammy Award-Winning Producer, Musician, Composer, Arranger
