Sarah Bethe Nelson

About Sarah Bethe Nelson

With her breathy voice and knack for catchy, artful melodies, Sarah Bethe Nelson sounded like a precocious indie pop newcomer with the release of her 2015 album Fast Moving Clouds. The truth is, Nelson was a seasoned veteran of the California music scene as a member of the band Prairiedog when her solo debut finally expanded her reputation outside her hometown. Nelson's music is warm, tuneful indie rock with a pop sensibility, a folk-informed melodic sense, and a subtle sense of adventure that found its first expression on Fast Moving Clouds. She added greater punch and production polish to her music while maintaining its unique character on 2019's Weird Glow, and found a middle ground between minimalism and ambitious bedroom pop with 2022's home-recorded Mental Picture.
