Sakara

Sakara is a Cambridge-based indie-folk songwriter whose work explores friendship, self-worth, identity, disability, chronic illness and relationships. Her debut single ‘This is Reality’ examined the gap between an imagined life and the reality built over time, receiving support from BBC Introducing in Cambridgeshire and Essex, Cambridge Radio and Future Hits Radio. ‘Sunflower’, produced by Francis Botcherby of Parliament of Wolves, grew from an exchange of sunflower seeds and cat photographs with a friend. The song balances disappointment and uncertainty with gratitude, connection and renewal. Sakara has performed at Cambridge Folk Club’s annual folk day and on the Rumshack stage at Glastonbury.
