The name 'Sahra Indio' was born in California. Sahra Indio, means 'resting place of the people'. A name you must study first before pronouncing it correctly Sah-Ra. The woman Sahra was born in Philadelphia in a complex & musical family that included the sweet jazz of now legendary cousin, Clifford Brown. It was her grandfather who insisted that she play an instrument. As Sahra grew into womanhood both, Grandfather's house and the clarinet were gone. The shattering music of Bob Marley and The Wailers sparked a new understanding.<BR>

She would later 'catch a fire' on the active volcanic island of Hawaii, re-birthing herself in the 'Jahringa' Reggae Band. 'Jahringa', is aboriginal for 'dreamtime', a place where Sahra found the voice to sing about the beauty and the mystery of life.<BR>
<BR>
Sahra's debut Cd's title track "Good's Gonna Happen", (Olumeye Records 2003), received international merit for the positive promise, "good's gonna happen so, don't give up, good's gonna come to you my love", winning the 'Reggae Song of the Year' award, (Unisong 2004).<BR>
<BR>
Sahra is opening for and performing with international Reggae stars such as, Alpha Blondy, Don Carlos, Third World, Junior Reid, Prezident Brown, Dezarie, Bambu Station, Midnite, Ikahba, Steel Pulse & Rico Rodriques.<BR>
<BR>
Sahra's dynamic club, festival and radio appearances have carried the message of 'truth & rights' globally, earning her the title 'Jah's Jewel' and most recently, in the US Virgin Islands where fans felt the good vibes of Empress Sahra Indio.<BR>
<BR>
Sahra's next CD 'Change', co-produced by Tuff Lion (Viva Music and Bambu Station) and Sahra Indio (Olumeye Records), tours are being scheduled for the Fall 2006 release.<BR>
