Sarah Jarosz is a Grammy Award nominated American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Born in Austin, Texas on May 23, 1991, she began playing the mandolin at the age of 10 and quickly gained recognition in the bluegrass community. By the time she was 14, Jarosz was sharing the stage with icons like David Grisman and Ricky Skaggs.

Aside from her skills on the mandolin, Jarosz also plays guitar, banjo, and piano. She writes most of her own music which blends contemporary and progressive bluegrass with elements of folk, old-timey country, and folk rock. Often compared to Gillian Welch, Jarosz attended the New England Conservatory of Music where she studied contemporary improvisation.

In 2009, during her senior year of high school, Jarosz signed with Sugar Hill Records who released her debut album "Song Up In Her Head". The album earned her a Grammy nomination for Best Country Instrumental Performance for the track "Mansinneedof". It reached #1 on Billboard's Bluegrass chart as well as #21 on the Indie chart and #158 on the Hot 200 (pop) chart.

Her second album "Follow Me Down" was released in 2011 and features nine original tracks along with covers of Radiohead's "The Tourist" recorded with Punch Brothers and Bob Dylan's "Ring Them

The soulful and gorgeous collection – produced by John Leventhal (Rosanne Cash, Elvis Costello) and recorded in his Manhattan home studio – follows Jarosz’s Grammy-winning 2016 release Undercurrent (Rounder).

World On The Ground is a collection of stories both real and imagined exploring the tension and inertia of small-town living. Jarosz, a native of Wimberley, TX (pop. 2,626) and current NYC resident, explores the desire for escape set against the ease of staying put. The album is populated by sensitive souls, aimless wanderers, and back-porch daydreamers. Their stories are illuminated by the album’s spacious yet intricate arrangements and Jarosz’s captivating voice and richly detailed songwriting. With the scope of a novel and a sound inspired by classic Texas songwriting, World On The Ground paints a portrait that exists outside of time.
