Sitting at a piano, Sāde Frame lives in the moment, wears her heart on her sleeve, shows her sense of humor, and tells her story. The Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist opens up about Gen-Z relationships, childhood friendships, and lifelong dreams with both youthful candor and wisdom-beyond-her-years. “Art gives you permission to be whoever you want to be,” she observes. “When I’m in the studio or performing on stage, I can be as loud, emotional, anxious, or dramatic as I want to be. You’re allowed to be completely authentic without being judged. I get to tell my story. I definitely found my calling.” Sāde stirred up buzz with her debut “Let You Go,” attracting DAS Communications to her corner and building an enthusiastic following on social media. She remained prolific, unveiling “Highlight” [with Davis King] and writing nonstop. Moving to Los Angeles, she kept up the pace, serving up “Catch Me If You Can” [with Ryan Bieber] and “Heat” [with REVERSE, DeepMe, & Ubo]. Along the way, she notably won the American Songwriter “Heat Toppers Song Contest Promotion” with “Dating Isn’t Fun,” while Music Connection and more featured her. “When you listen to my music, I hope you feel heard and seen,” she leaves off. “A huge reason why I write is because I want other people to feel less alone. You can know there’s somebody who feels the same way you do. I’m still figuring out who I am, but I’m also going to be super authentic.”
