		Slean had shown impeccable taste on her previous recordings; there is no way that the vibrato-obsessed, unmelodic lead vocal style of "Eliot" and "Book Smart, Street Stupid" could have been her idea.

		Sarah Slean is wonderful, of all the new artists I heard last year she was my favourite, and turned out to be the one with most staying power.
		Sarah is no pale imitation of Tori Amos; she's a rather stunning singer/songwriter in her own right, who just happens to play a mean piano, have a soaring voice, and write poetic, but rather vague, lyrics.
		Sarah has gotten to the point where she has so many terrific songs that it is impossible for her to play all of them at any given show, and consequently I'm bound to be let down that she didn't play at least a couple of songs that I love.

	Sarah Slean, Blue Parade (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Sarah Slean, who is a fixture on the Toronto club circuit, has a trembling, soulful voice.
		Slean has recruited some talented musicians to play with her, most notably Starling bassist Maury LaFoy on "Twin Moon" and "Eliot," plus multi-instrumentalist Kurt Swinghammer.
		I've never been a fan of Slean's particular type of music; what it comes down to is that "Blue Parade" is just not my kind of record, as well-constructed as it may be.

		Feeling her life spinning out of control, Slean sold her belongings, broke her lease, and loaded her piano in a truck.
		People were eager not only to make assumptions but to publish them as well, notes Slean, and this sent her into a further spiral of panic.
		And there's no mistaking the darkness in the record when the opening track, "Pilgrim", begins with Slean singing "A little blood and vomit on the car seat/And a tooth is sitting in my lap" over distorted guitar, grinding programmed beats, and emphatic strings.

	Sarah Slean Biography
		Sarah Slean describes the genesis of her fourth full-length album Day One as occuring in the summer of 2003 when, as she puts it, her house burnt down.
		The fallout from this particular four alarm fire was so great that it sent Slean scrambling for a change of scenery.
		The vaguely apocalyptic overtones to Slean's artwork aren't just representative of her headspace going in, but also of how she sees the world these days.

		Sarah's style brings the piano to the forefront of a whole band effort and successfully slots it altogether to make one piece.
		Reviewer: Matt BLB (wild_quinine@yahoo.co.uk) from St. Andrews, U.K. This EP is a review of the work of Sarah Slean, her independant releases since 1997, and a preview of the music that she will be releasing in the near future on her sophomore full length album.
		Sarah has a strong foothold in the world of music, and this EP release attempts to stick a piton into the craggy rock face of mainstream media recognition.

	CONCERT REVIEW: Sarah Slean -- Canadian Invasion (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Slean’s backup band of guitar, bass, and drums provided a great backdrop against which Slean stood out brilliantly.
		The solo piano and female vocal genre, which Slean did very well when it was called for, is fine but the coordination with the rest of the band was terrific.
		Things started to liven up a bit during Cassis’ set when he brought Slean out to help out on “As the Days Are Long.” She accompanied him on piano and contributed vocals to the chorus.

		While Slean slugged away at two jobs plus school, living in a basement apartment "full of bugs," negotiations began.
		Last fall, Slean packed up her piano, grabbed local boy wonder Hawksley Workman and headed to Bearsville Studios in New York state to record her major-label debut.
		Slean considers the still-untitled album (due out in August) a collection of her best writing and is thrilled that, after waiting a few years for it, her label is still enthusiastic about its release.

	Amazon.ca: Night Bugs: Music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Though it's her major-label debut, Sarah Slean's Night Bugs is as idiosyncratic and delightful as her indie releases.
		Slean and Workman made most of Night Bugs at Bearsville Studios in upstate New York, and the higher recording budget has apparently given their imaginations free rein.
		I first heard sarah slean sing on the vicki gabereau show in 2001 and ever since, i've been hooked, she's easily my favourite female singer.

	Collected Sounds Artist Spotlight on Sarah Slean
		Sarah's appears in the March (2001) issue of Eye.
		Reminiscent of Sarah McLachlan's earlier stuff with all the layers (the stuff I prefer over her latest efforts, but that too, is another story) with a little Tori Amos thrown in.
		Her piano playing is exceptional and her voice is so beautiful I can't really describe it except to say that she reminds me a little of Tori Amos, and Sarah McLachlan all wrapped in to one and that is a very nice gift.

	Sarah Slean - Music Downloads - Online
		Bio: Sarah Slean first appeared on the Toronto live circuit in 1997; the release of her independent debut EP Universe followed soon afterward.
		Already an accomplished, classically trained pianist, the Pickering, Ontario, native pursued her studies in the music program at the University of Toronto while gradually carving out a name for herself as a charismatic, ebullient live performer.
		When coupled with her wistful delivery, Slean's contemplative, piano-led pop drew immediate (and well-founded) comparisons to the work of artists like Tori Amos and, to a lesser extent, Sarah McLachlan.

	Fans of Sarah Slean
		Sarah was wearing a fantastic dress when I saw her.
		The last time I saw Sarah play was nearly two years ago, the last time she was in Burlington, Vermont.
		She opened for Rasputina, and the crowd was goth-ed to the teeth, ill-prepared for Sarah's weird, wonderful between-song banter.
