Sarah Hardwig is a country singer-songwriter with an inspiring story. Hardwig has been singing since she was a little girl, and music has set her soul on fire ever since. At the age of 5 months, Sarah was diagnosed with Leber's Congenital Amaurosis, which impaired her vision.

When it comes to singing and performing, Sarah’s diagnosis has never held her back, and her blindness has never stopped her from displaying pure greatness and natural-born talent. Pulling from influences such as Kelsea Ballerini and Carrie Underwood, Sarah’s songwriting skills and larger-than-life voice make her a special talent in the Nashville country music scene. To hone her songwriting craft, Hardwig is studying at Belmont University as a part of their world renowned songwriting major.

Sarah is an incredible National Anthem singer, and has been performed it over 300+ times including at the 2022 Music City Bowl at Nissan Stadium, Universities, Professional Sporting Events and more.  She has shared the stage with acts such as LOCASH, Charles Kelley from Lady A, and Lauren Alaina.

Sarah has even performed with Steven Tyler, one of her musical idols. The two duetted on a rendition of “Stand by Your Man,” and took the internet by storm, where the video has been watched on YouTube more than 30K times.

In 2023, Sarah won the Tennessee Songwriters Showcase in February, was selected to participate in The Acoustic Guitar Project at the Country Music Hall of Fame,  performed at the Island Hopper Songwriting Festival in September for the first time as an artist after several appearances as a guest.
