Sarah McLachlan nació y fue adoptada en Halifax, Nueva Escocia, Canadá. A los cuatro años sus padres le regalaron un ukelele. De niña, tomó lecciones de voz, junto con el estudio del piano y la guitarra clásica. Cuando tenía 17 años de edad, se integró en una banda de rock llamada The October Game.
Después del primer concierto de The Octuber Game, en la universidad de Dallhousie, la casa discográfica independiente Nettwerk ubicada en Vancouver, le ofreció a Sarah un contrato para grabar un disco.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
This tab was compiled using the Afterglow Live DVD/CD and also with a little help from the Mirrorball music book. I suggest watching the Afterglow DVD or listening to the CD as you learn it because she plays it a lot differently than the Mirrorball or Fumbling Towards Ecstasy versions. I think this is pretty close, I apologize for anything that may be wrong.
