Sara K.
Sara K. (full name Sara Katherine Wooldridge) is an American singer-songwriter based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Her music includes genres like blues, folk as well as jazz. She has released audiophile albums〔(stereoplay.de - Inhalt von stereoplay 8/03 )〕 and used to play a custom 4-(bass)-string acoustic guitar. She withdrew from music business in 2009.
==Childhood and early career==
Born and raised in Dallas, Texas, she grew up in a family surrounded by music: her mother sang in a church choir, her father in a barbershop quartet, her brother played in a band, and her sister also played the guitar. However, her family considered music a hobby, not a job option.
In the early 1970s, at the age of 15, she started playing the guitar, using one her sister had left behind. She took this flamenco guitar, took off the remaining regular strings, and put four bass strings on instead (tuned to an open A). This gave it a fuller tone than a conventional acoustic guitar while not sounding as deep as a bass.〔(Singer/songwriter - Sara K. - Bio )〕 She used this tuning from then on, making it one of her trademarks.
Although the era of acoustic solo performers was on the decline in the late 1970s, she stayed on that course. After graduating and moving out, she spent a few years playing whenever and wherever possible, be it "happy hours", back-up vocals for country music and jingles, or her own demo tapes. When realizing that she didn't entirely fit the contemporary scene in Dallas, she moved to New Mexico.
