Myth Of The Heart

Located 28 miles southwest of Austin, Wimberley, TX, boasts natural springs and gravesites of early pioneers. It's also been the hometown to Sahara Smith, a stunning, young singer/songwriter who started performing at age 12, and first garnered national attention at age 15 when she placed second in a contest for young songwriters on a Prairie Home Companion. Now 21, Sahara is poised for a breakout with Myth of the Heart, an album of original songs shepherded by T Bone Burnett and producer Emile Kelman. The album features many of Burnett's first-call session players, including drummer Jay Bellerose, guitarist Marc Ribot, and bassist Dennis Crouch.
