US country music sweetheart Sarah Darling cemented her place as an adopted Brit last month when her stunning new album ‘Wonderland’ went to number 1 on the Official UK Country Top 20 Album Chart.
This was the Iowa native’s vert first number 1 anywhere in the world and thanks to ger growing fanbase here in Britain the honey-toned vocalist will be sure to add to that chart accolade in the coming years. British country fans have taken the Nashville based singer/songwriter to their hearts and have officially adopted them as one of their own.
Her UK tours consistently sell out while her C2C (Country to Country) Festival performances are always some of the most packed of the whole three-day event in London’s O2 Arena. Her sweet personality and breathtaking vocal range have made her a major force within the ever-growing UK country music scene and her hard work and dedication paid off big style when the ‘Wonderland’ record hit the top spot.
It felt somehow meant to be that her very first number 1 would be on the British charts, especially since the LP was written, recorded and produced across England and Wales throughout the summer of 2018 making it a “made in the UK project”.
