Sarah Copus is an award-winning, Billboard charting singer/songwriter and harpist. She has been performing and recording for over 8 years with her parent’s platinum selling band, and more recently as a solo artist. For a musician under 16, she has had some extraordinary success: three albums hit the Billboard charts that feature her as lead singer, radio airplay across hundreds of stations worldwide, and a Best Vocal Album award at the Zone Music Reporter Awards Show in 2015.   

Her first recordings in the Irish language appear on the album “Winter Air” in 2013 when she was only 9 years old. Sarah has also been featured as a soloist at concerts of major touring artists like Celtic Woman and The Irish Tenors. In July 2016, she sang a duet with Emmet Cahill of Celtic Thunder during his performance in Dallas. She has also performed as an opening act for Irish musical sensations, Téada at their “Irish Christmas in America” tour.

Sarah sings in Irish, Scottish Gaelic, Welsh, and English and plays harp, violin, piano, guitar, and baritone ukulele. Visit Sarah’s website for upcoming shows, the latest photos, videos, and news – www.sarahcopus.com.

Testimonials

Former Student

Of all the wonderful aspects of the retreat, though, I think the most wonderful and the most memorable was seeing the effect it had on my son. Andrew really got into the music and into playing in a way that I have never seen in him. When we got home, he and I told the rest of the family about our experiences and then went right out into the front yard and started playing music. No amount of money can buy that kind of experience and your retreat, to a large extent, helped make that happen.
