Sara Tone

For nearly 2 decades Portland based musician, educator, and activist, Sara Tone shares her love songs for the Earth as a multi-instrumentalist. Expressing herself through voice, guitar, baritone uke, kalimba, ocarina, and an assortment of percussion instruments. Her style ranges from deep heart rooted fae-soul, world-folk, with an undeniable hip-hop approach. (Read: dorky choir kid with a strong ear taught herself lots of instruments to try to express and share the nature inspired symphony she hears and feels intensely).

You’ll often find her building musical expression into sonic reality through live looping, blending harmonies, beat box, and a quiver full of instruments. More than songs, there’s an intention and vibe created and held, a collective power of presence and gratitude that the this music emanates and amplifies, a prayer, a spell, a sonic stream to soak your soul…

Sara has been blessed by incredible musical collaborators! Most recently with the incredibly gifted singers Ayla Réalta & Tonya Abernathy who shared their gifts for the newest recording . For years she has found musical support with the talents of Max Ribner, Amy Ringle, Samara Jade & Micaela Kingslight of Three Wheels Turning, Sean Frenette, Krivo Flores, Al Torre, and so many more.

For Sara Tone, musical inspiration comes deeply and directly from nature. She has utilized her voice and lent her musical offerings as a strong advocate to many awareness and fundraising events including actions for intact forests, clean water and flowing watersheds, clean seeds, carbon sequestering and soil building, salmon restoration, free-roaming buffalo, and for We Are Mauna Kea, on Hawai’i Island.
