Sara Hickman - Absence Of Blame (2010)

This is a beautiful recording with moments that sent chills through me. … [Sara’s] voice is in amazing shape, making the whole set simply soar. A baseball pitcher threw a no-hitter today, saved by an amazing play by an outfielder diving for a ball tailing away from him; they cut back to the pitcher and you could see him mouth the word “Wow.” And that’s my response: wow.~ David Kronke, Freelance Writer/Los Angeles Daily News/Huffington Post

ABSENCE OF BLAME is practically faultless. Frankly, she has never sounded better.~ Arthur Wood, Maverick Magazine UK

Although I’ve lived in Austin for years I had not become a big Sara fan until this album. But, a wonderful article in the recent Austin Chronicle got me interested in this one. Sara certainly covers a lot of territory and with the bravery of a songstress with guts and soul. Beautiful vocals and terrific supporting cast. Thanks for the music, Sara! ~ “Bluegrassinman”, iTunes Review
