Sarah Jarosz at World Cafe Live
Philadelphia
For someone who’s won four Grammy Awards and been nominated for no less than 10 of them, Sarah Jarosz has kept a relatively low profile over her 15-year career. A mandolin prodigy, she came up in bluegrass circles, which may explain her preference for letting the music speak for itself. That was certainly the case with 2020’s wonderful World on the Ground LP, a Grammy winner for Best Americana Album. The new Polaroid Lovers continues comfortably in that same refined contemporary singer/songwriter vein. Visit worldcafelive.com.
