Sarah Masen is a singer/songwriter originally from the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan, but has for several years lived in Nashville, Tennessee with her husband, author David Dark and their three children. Initially signed to Charlie Peacock's re:think label, and subsequently to Word, she is now independent. As a songwriter, she's collaborated with Bela Fleck, Julie Lee, and Sam Ashworth.
She began her music career as the singer for an acoustic folk-pop band "The Art Institute", which released one album, "The Holding", on TAI Records. Her self-titled debut in 1996 won considerable attention and its breakout single "All Fall Down" was included in the soundtrack for the TV show "Party of Five." Subsequent albums have not received similar mass media attention but have continued to earn critical plaudits.
In 2007, she self-released three new EPs, containing a total of 15 songs.
