Sari Schorr & The Engine Room (USA & UK) 
 

In January 2015 legendary producer Mike Vernon (Fleetwood Mac, John Mayall, Blue Horizon etc) was invited to receive a 'Keeping The Music Alive' Award at the prestigious International Blues Challenge in Memphis USA. This award was not the only highlight of the weekend for Mike; the second was witnessing the performance of one of the most amazing female blues singers Mike has seen in years - SARI SCHORR.

Mike was so knocked out with Sari that he offered to come out of retirement again (Frank Sinatra - eat your heart out) and produce an album with Sari.

Already a consummate songwriter, with tracks on major labels, Sari has written or co-written most of the songs on her new album.

This album recording is now well underway.

Several years of touring the USA & Europe with Joe Louis Walker and Poppa Chubby brought Sari greater prominence in the blues world. Sari was recently inducted into the New York Blues Hall of Fame.

SARI has now put together her own band - THE ENGINE ROOM featuring British guitarist Innes Sibun, formerly with Robert Plant. Together they will celebrate the release of Sari's debut album in September 2016 and undertake a European wide tour.
