Edit

Sarah McLachlan is a Canadian singer-songwriter, born in Nova Scotia in 1968. In addition to her Grammy Award winning career she was one of the founders of Lilith Fair, which provided a platform for women performers the late 1990s.

She began her music career fronting a rock group at high school and went on to release her debut album Touch in 1988, which was promoted by the song "Vox".Her breakthrough came with the 1993 album Fumbling Towards Ecstasy, which included the track "Possession", a version of which was used for the Canadian TV series Due South. The album went on to sell three million copies worldwide and was acclaimed by many critics as a minor classic.

Her greatest commercial success was to come from the 1997 album Surfacing which established McLachlan as one of Canada's top performers. The album would earn her two Grammys and four Junos. Surfacing also helped her promote Lilith Fair, which was an all-female music festival started to raise money for charity and help promote the work of female performers.

After a career break, McLachlan picked up where she left off with the release of the 2003 album Afterglow, which received five Juno nominations and reached No.1 in Canada and No.2 in the US.
