At 10 years old, Sarah Zimmermann fell in love with the guitar. 5 years of on and off lessons and learning Dixie Chicks albums by ear from start to finish, Sarah found herself joining the Paul Green School of Rock Music at age 15, and was immediately asked to be a member of the All-Stars after her first performance. During her years in the All-Stars, she had the incredible opportunity of playing such festivals as Lollapalooza, the Zappanale festival in Bad Doberan Germany, and countless other shows across the country, including the Fender 60th Anniversary festival in Tempe, AZ where the Fender brass were so impressed, they gave her an American Deluxe Telecaster. In addition, she has played alongside legends such as John Wetton of King Crimson and Asia, Mike Keneally, Jeff “Skunk” Baxter, The Players (Brent Mason, Eddie Bayers, Paul Franklin, Michael Rhodes, and John Hobbs), and Jon Anderson from Yes.
Sarah's newest project, "Common Thread" features herself and duet partner/guitar talent/singer/songwriter Justin Davis, and the two team up to produce a new sound of a male-female singing/lead guitar playing.
